Description

“Wild” saccharomyces yeast strain known to produce a huge citrus fruit ester profile. Citrus cranks out orange and lemon aromas along with some tropical fruit. Use this strain at high temps for big ester production. A “wild” saccharomyces strain, it will get a bit funky without the worries of a brettanomyces strain. Keep an eye on your fermentations, it does like to hit a false terminal and then slowly finish out the rest of fermentation.
