Bacteria are involved in the making of kriek. You're right about Lactobacillus. I think that Brettanomyces is also involved. If you want to brew your own, your friendly neighborhood homebrew supplier can get you a culture. Plan on dedicating a container to kriek production because the bacterial contamination can't be removed and you don't want to sour your other beers.

Yeast, though I don't think they are really bacteria.

There are lots of different kinds of yeast you can use.

I make beer, alot of beer. Therew is no Bacteria involved.

yeast and sugar are the active ingriedients in beer, yeast is a culture and a living organism not a bacteria .

Brewers go through a lot of trouble to keep bacteria out of beer. Bacteria typically ruins beer by giving it off flavors.

According to the website of White Labs, a manufacturer of brewers yeast, lactobacillus is a beer spoiling micro-organism which "taints beer with flavors most brewers consider highly undesirable."
