This one is amazing. A guy comes into his doctors office saying he gets drunk without touching alcohol. It's confirmed with breathalyzer analysis.

After admitting him, observing he had nothing to drink and feeding him starchy foods, be blows a .17!

They determined it was a gut infection with brewers yeast! He was fermenting sugars in his gut.

This opens up vast new possibilities in drug development...

****...now we'll have some local microbrewer trying to figure out how to make beer from this yeast. I'm surprised there isn't a vaginal yeast IPA on the market yet.

No...this WAS brewers yeast. Saccharomyces Cerivesiae.

But Vaginal Yeast IPA is an awesome idea for a wild beer.

What would be a good name? Poontang Cheese Cream Ale? Smegmatic IPA? Fishy Discharge Stout?

Yuck!

Making alcohol in your gut sounds like the newest excuse for drunk drivers to me: "Your honor, my client had not been drinking. He's the victim of a yeast infection." Sure, he is.

Seriously, though, whatever's going on this guy's gut must be corroding him from the inside out.
