Description

Strong pineapple ester and good flocculation, so you can crop yeast and turn around beers faster.

  • Strong producer of pineapple esters.
  • Excellent fermentation efficiency.
  • Easy to harvest and repitch.
  • Balanced hop biotransformation profile (thiols and terpenes).
  • Can be used in IPAs, sours, and more!

How did we do it? Yeast breeding was used to combine two aromatic strains (Kveik x Beer 2) and improve flocculation and ester production through a phenomenon known as "hybrid vigor". Can be fermented warm or with a free rise, enhancing pineapple ester production. Also suited to fermenting sours.

Flavour/Aroma

Pineapple, Guava, Lemon

Dosage

10 million cells/mL

Suitable Styles

  • IPA

Footnotes

  • * Rough estimate based on yeast form
  • ** Hazy and thiolized are based on research from Omega Labs
  • *** Origins are often unreliable (hearsay) and difficult to determine
