White Labs WLP079 SUAVA Ale Yeast 11g

A collaboration between White Labs, Escarpment Laboratories and Lallemand, we present a new strain with the focus on biotransformation: WLP079 Suava Ale Yeast is non-GMO and haze positive, has medium to high attenuation and low flocculation character, and can complete fermentation in 6-10 days depending on temperature. Built for hazy and hop-forward beers, this strain unlocks balanced thiol expression, delivering vibrant notes of guava, passionfruit, white grape, and blackcurrant with a smooth mouthfeel.

In modern brewing, the vast majority of beers are fermented using a narrow selection of highly domesticated industrial yeast monocultures. However, recent genetic research has unlocked historical yeast populations preserved for centuries by farmhouse brewers in Northern and Eastern Europe. A prominent result of this research is WLP079 Suava Ale Yeast… Released specifically in a dry format, this strain was developed to provide brewers with a non-GMO option that delivers controlled thiol expression and tropical aromatics in hop-forward beers.
