Description

A top fermenting yeast, Voss Kveik offers fast fermentation at very high temperatures whilst retaining a neutral flavour character with subtle citrus fruit notes.

Flavour/Aroma

The Voss Kveik strain produces ales with a neutral aroma profile across a wide temperature range. Due to the neutral aroma punctuated by subtle orange and citrusy esters, this yeast lends itself very well to hop-forward pale ales and IPAs. This highly attenuative yeast will leave moderately low levels of residual sugar, resulting incleanly fermented beers that are relatively dry. The flavour profile is neutral except for the presence of restrained orange and citrus fruit notes.

Usage

Sprinkle contents directly onto a maximum of 23 L (6 US Gal) of wort. Suitable to ferment 20-40 °C (68-104 °F) but for optimal results ferment at 30-40 °C (86-104 F).
