Since it's yeast, it would produce beer but not nearly at the quality a specific beer brewing yeast would. Beer brewing should use specific strains of yeast to properly activate fermentation that turns the sugars of the beer into alcohol. Different types of beer require different types of yeast in the recipe to turn out properly.

Baker's yeast is specifically intended for baking, while Brewers yeast is what you would want to use for brewing beer. If you use bakers yeast for beer brewing, your recipe will not turn out properly and your batch of beer will be probably not taste very good.

Yeast was necessarily grown in this manner for use in bread making as well as ale or beer making, often in a cool room adjoining the kitchen, so that a gill of yeast would have been a half cup of this brew kept fermenting for this purpose.
