now......... wouldn't you say... that the "fleischmann's yeast"
is active (viable) and the brewer's yeast that is "left-over" from
the brewing process is already SPENT (unviable) to a large extent?

I've personally drank beer with Jim Koch and the dude was very drunk. Maybe he forgot the yeast that night? Either way I don't see how the yeast would have this effect. Yeast feeds on fermentable sugars and turns them into alcohol. Most beer has had all those sugars processed by the yeast during the fermentation cycle, leaving the yeast with little to nothing to do. If you were to eat yeast and then drunk beer, I'd think you'd have no beneficial side effects, but your digestive system would be like a foghorn for 10 hours...
