Isolated from a unique farmhouse-style ale that hails from the Walloon region of Belgium, this strain of STA1+ Saccharomyces cerevisiae imparts a slight earthy/spicy funk, mild tartness and produces a restrained ester profile. This strain exhibits high diastatic activity, and we recommend adding mouthfeel by using adjuncts that lend additional body to the beer.

If you want to say “hops” in your beer then this variety says it all. The pure weight of the oil character experienced during selection carries right through to the glass. A punchy addition to the new-world styles of Pale Ale and regional Pilseners. A cult hero that is established in the New Zealand craft beer culture.

This batch is from 2022 harvest.

Species: Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Brettanomyces, Lactobacillus, & Pediococcus blend

Profile: Our blend of lambic cultures produce beer with a complex, earthy profile and a distinctive pie cherry sourness. Aging up to 18 months is required for a full flavor profile and acidity to develop. Specific proportions of a Belgian style ale strain, a sherry strain, two Brettanomyces strains, a Lactobacillus culture, and a Pediococcus culture produce the desirable flavor components of these beers as they are brewed in West Flanders. Propagation of this culture is not recommended and will result in a change of the proportions of the individual components. This blend will produce a very dry beer due to the super-attenuative nature of the mixed cultures.
