Generally from poor sanitation practices. Sometime the barley itself is contaminated, as in the case of fusarium, but poor sanitation practice is a far more likely culprit.
No. Yeasts make beer - a completely different micro-organism.
I believe you are referring to the yeast in beer. It is a small micro-organizm that is critical to the beer making process. The yeast converts sugars to alcohol. In most commercially produced beer it has been filtered out.
Wisconsin, Michigan, and Colorado all feature great beer factories. These are typically micro brewiers.
One could easily make the argument for Anchor Steam Brewing.

The answer is easily found anywhere quality beer is sold. Amber. It's far better at protecting beer from harmful UV rays than green or clear bottles.
Local beer is often manufactured and distributed from smaller venues known as micro breweries. These can be found all across the United States and a great database for them is Brewers Association, which lists locations of micro breweries in the U.S.

Draught beer's environmental impact can be 68% lower than bottled beer due to packaging differences.[134][135] Home brewing can reduce the environmental impact of beer via less packaging and transportation.[136] A life cycle study of one beer brand shows that the CO2 emissions from a 6-pack of micro-brew beer is about 3 kilograms (6.6 pounds) -- including grain production, brewing, bottling, distribution and waste management.[137] The loss of natural habitat potential from the 6-pack of micro-brew beer is estimated to be 2.5 square meters (26 square feet).[138] Downstream emissions from distribution, retail, storage and disposal of waste can be over 45% of a bottled micro-brew beer's CO2 emissions.[137] The use of a refillable jug, reusable bottle or other reusable containers to transport draught beer from a store or a bar (where legal) can reduce the environmental impact of beer consumption (as opposed to buying pre-bottled beer).[139] The above was taken from the Wikipedia.org article on beer.

At my place it was $3 for a good micro-brewed ale. $2. for Budweiser.
