Hailing from the Pacific Northwest, this strain is a mild ester producer while promoting malt character. It can be used for a range of styles from an English mild to an American IPA or Irish stout. A great flocculator, it leaves a clear beer and saves on conditioning time.

This strain has more similarities to an English strain than WLP001 California Ale Yeast®. It is a big ester producer, showcasing notes of cherry and apple which compliment pale ales, blonde and brown ales. Typically leaves some residual, lager-like sulfur compounds in finished beer. Recent sequencing studies show that this strain belongs to Saccharomyces pastorianus species, the same hybrid species as most lager strains. However, this strain has been used to make ales for decades and was previously categorized as belonging to Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

This blend of three strains creates a clean and neutral fermentation character, making it ideal for use in many different American beer styles. The blend lends complexity to finished beer by exhibiting a crisp, clean lager-like character with accentuated hop flavors and bitterness. A slight amount of sulfur can be produced during peak fermentation.

This is the go-to strain for New England-style IPAs. It produces a medium ester profile similar to WLP008 East Coast Ale Yeast. It leaves some residual sweetness, helping accentuate both malt and hop flavors and aromas, while retaining a velvety mouthfeel.

A clean strain that complements malt flavor. Low to moderate esters are produced when fermentation temperature is below 70°F (21°C). Moderate to high ester character achieved above 70°F (21°C). Low diacetyl production.

This is a blend of non-GMO yeast strains that have been carefully selected to aid in the release of bound thiol compounds by targeting high enzymatic B-lyase activity. Providing a balance of tropical flavors and aromas, such as passionfruit, grapefruit, and mango, that’s perfect for a juicy, hazy IPA!

A blend of ale and lager yeast, this strain produces a classic cream ale. The blend produces a pleasing light fruity note from the ale yeast, while the lager strain produces clean pilsner-like flavors and a slightly subdued hop bitterness. This blend is known for producing subtle sulfur during primary fermentation.

East vs West has long been a battle… cities, weather, pizza, rap… and now IPAs. Who does it better? Luckily our new Hazy blend will produce amazing hazy beers- coast to coast and beyond.

When used in conjunction with new-world modern hops, this blend produces amazing hazy beers by accentuating hop aroma reminiscent of fresh citrus and tropical fruit.

Licensed from Charlie Papazian, this strain can ferment at both ale and lager temperatures, allowing brewers to produce diverse beer styles. The recipes in both Papazian’s books, The Complete Joy of Homebrewing and The Homebrewer’s Companion, were originally developed and brewed with this yeast.

Ales: Optimum cellaring temperature: 50 to 55°F (10-13°C);
Altbiers can be cellared at lagering temperatures.
Lagers: Optimum cellaring temperature: 32 to 37°F (0-3°C)
