GMO THC PDQ

Berkeley scientists genetically modify yeast to produce cannabinoids, including THC.
For research purposes. Really.
Quote:But the team didn't stop there; they realised that the enzymatic steps involved in making the CBGA were flexible, so they tried out different starter chemicals in the place of the one the marijuana plant used. This generates cannabinoids that don't exist in nature, offering up more targets for medical research.

That'd make some beer that would.
I love the smell of rotaries in the morning. You know one time, I got to work early, before the rush hour. I walked through the empty carpark, I didn't see one bloody Prius or Golf. And that smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole carpark, smelled like.... ....speed.
One day they're going to ban them.
