  8. White Labs PurePitch® Next Generation WLP618 NA All Day
    $28.00

    White Labs PurePitch® Next Generation WLP618 NA All Day

    This strain of non-conventional brewing yeast, Saccharomycodes ludwigii, has been found to be useful when brewing a low alcohol beer. This specific strain has been chosen because of its lower ethyl acetate production compared to similar strains. This species does not ferment maltose or other larger sugars and will only ferment the glucose, sucrose, and fructose.

    This strain is appropriate for all styles of low alcohol beer. Although this would be categorized as a wild yeast, this strain would not typically be considered a beer spoiler as it does not have the ability to ferment larger sugars. Using this strain to create a low alcohol beer requires a modified recipe.

  9. White Labs PurePitch® Next Generation WLP002 English Ale Yeast
    $28.00

    White Labs PurePitch® Next Generation WLP002 English Ale Yeast

    WLP002 is a classic ESB strain from one of England’s largest independent breweries. While it is traditionally used for English-style ales including milds, bitters, porters, and stouts, it is also ideal for American-style pale ales and IPAs. Residual sweetness accentuates malt character along with mild fruity esters, adding complexity to the flavor and aroma of finished beers. Slight diacetyl production is common. Due to this strain’s high flocculation, the beer will finish clear and the yeast can easily be harvested from the fermenter for future use. It is common for this yeast to look coagulated.

  10. White Labs PurePitch® Next Generation WLP004 Irish Ale Yeast

    White Labs PurePitch® Next Generation WLP004 Irish Ale Yeast

    WLP004 is from one of the oldest stout-producing breweries in the world. It’s great for many beer styles but really shines in malty British styles such as stouts, porters and brown ales. Medium attenuation helps with a dry finish that promotes roasty notes. Esters help round out the overall flavor making a soft drinkable stout.
