Yeast (and in some beer styles, bacteria) ferment sugars to produce ethanol, carbon dioxide and a whole range of other byproducts which make beer taste the way it does. This stops beer wort from being sweet and turns it into the dry alcoholic drink it should be. They are also often used for carbonation in bottle.
