From Staffordshire, England. Fermentation gives a mild but complex ester character. Ferments strong and dry and is good for high gravity beers. Best for all English-style ales, including bitters, milds, ESBs, porters, stouts and barleywines.

This strain pays homage to Emil Christian Hansen, who paved the way for pure cultures in brewing, isolating the first pure cell at the Carlsberg Laboratory in Copenhagen in 1883. Channeling his passion for innovation, we developed this yeast blend to create diversity with high attenuation, a clean flavor profile, and pronounced hop characteristics.

Blended culture used to produce the classic beer styles of the West Flanders region of Belgium. A proprietary blend of Saccharomyces and Brettanomyces yeasts with Lactobacillus and Pediococcus bacteria, this culture creates a more complex, dark stone fruit characteristic than WLP655 Belgian Sour Mix 1.

Isolated from a uniquely crafted double IPA that hails from Vermont, this single strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae produces a complex fruity ester profile of peach, apricot and light citrus that complements any aggressively hopped beer.

Flanders Specialty Ale is a single strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae isolated from a fascinating Belgian producer of a wide array of traditional Belgian beer styles. This is a versatile yeast that will ferment fairly dry and produce a balanced flavor and aroma profile laced with a myriad of esters and phenols.

A blend of two unique Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains (one STA1+), one strain being a good attenuator that produces a spicy and mildly tart character along with a full mouthfeel and the other being a good attenuator that produces a delightful ester profile of grapefruit and orange zest. This blend exhibits low diastatic activity.

Northeastern Abbey is a strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae isolated from a beer crafted by a well-known American producer of Belgian-style ales. This top-cropping yeast produces a magnificent array of pear and citrus fruit esters, complemented by a very mild spicy and earthy character.

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.

This blend is a combination of two STA1+ Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains, one producing an ester profile of grapefruit and orange zest and the other being more attenuative and producing a mild earthiness and spiciness. This blend exhibits high diastatic activity.
