'''Lactobacillus''' (often referred to by brewers as "Lacto") is a genus of Gram-positive, rod-shaped lactic acid bacteria (LAB) which produces acidity and sour flavors in the form of lactic acid (and sometimes acetic acid) found in lambics, Berliner Weiss, sour brown ales, and gueuze. All ''Lactobacillus'' species are aerotolerant facultative anaerobes, which means they grow anaerobically but can also grow in the presence of oxygen and use oxygen to some degree <refname="todar_lactics4">[http://textbookofbacteriology.net/lactics.html Lactic Acid Bacteria. Todar's Online Texbook of Bacteriology. Kenneth Todar, PhD. Pg 1. Retrieved 08/09/2015.]</ref>. There are more than 100 species, many of which are found in the human gastrointestinal track <refname="todar_lactics4">[http://textbookofbacteriology.net/lactics_4.html ''Lactic Acid Bacteria''.

In addition to beer, some species of ''Lactobacillus'' are also used to ferment yogurt, cheese, sauerkraut, pickles, wine, cider, kimchi, cocoa, and kefir <ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactobacillus ''Lactobacillus''.

See [[Pediococcus]], [[Brettanomyces]], [[Saccharomyces]], and [[Mixed Cultures]] charts for other commercially available cultures. See the [[Sour Worting]] and [[Mixed Fermentation]] pages for brewing techniques with ''Lactobacillus''. See the [[Alternative Bacteria Sources]] section for culturing ''Lactobacillus'' from grains, yogurt, probiotics, and other sources.
