Vinegar that has been mixed with the yeast of beer must be sold to a Gentile before Passover (in order not to violate the commandment of Ex. 12,19 and 13,7, which prohibits a Jew from possessing leaven during the Passover week). The Gentile may be told that if he holds the vinegar until after Passover, a Jew will buy it from him.
