Description: Formerly British Ale VIII A ridiculously thorough flocculator thought to be from a highly regarded English ESB. This strain has unique fruitiness and noticeable finishing sweetness. Drops out quickly and completely. Easy to crop, but needs a diacetyl rest.

  Description: A productive, brewery friendly, top cropper attributed to a historic London brewery whose lab once hosted Louis Pasteur. It drops fast and clear, and is clean and crisp at low temperatures with heightened esters and a lightly tart, dry finish at upper ranges. Try also British Ale II (OYL-007) for less attenuation and enhanced malts, or British VIII (OYL-016).Flocculation: Medium-HighAttenuation: 70-80%Temperature Range: 64-72° F (18-22° C)Alcohol Tolerance: 10% We ship all liquid yeast with an ice pack and insulated bubble envelope.

  Description: A classic German wheat strain, it’s a cloudy, big top cropper. Presenting banana and clove, the esters turn up with increased temperatures, wort density and decreased pitch rate, or stay muted at lower temperatures where clove stands out. Over pitching can lessen the banana. Sulfur conditions out. See also Belgian Ale A (OYL-024) for an alternate complexity.Flocculation: LowAttenuation: 73-77%Temperature Range: 64-75° F (18-24° C)Alcohol Tolerance: 10% We ship all liquid yeast with an ice pack and insulated bubble envelope.

  Description: Versatile, crisp, malty profile, light esters and a wide fermentation range. One of the world’s most prominent lager strains. Sports a versatile malty profile with light esters at a wide fermentation range. Maintain a more crisp profile by fermenting low or bring out slightly heightened esters at warmer temps (65 – 68°F). Avoid any hints of diacetyl and up your lager game. Diacetyl Knock OutThe DKO series strains prevent the formation of diacetyl while maintaining the identical fermentation behaviors and flavor expressions of their parental strains. The benefit of ALDC-expressing yeast is that the pathway for diacetyl formation is stopped at the source resulting in virtually no diacetyl production throughout fermentation. When these strains are put to use, the diacetyl levels never reach sensory thresholds. Even when using the most sensitive GC-ECD methods, they stay at the lower limits of detection, giving you peace of mind. Benefits: Avoid diacetyl hangups with hop creep Boost quality and keep tanks turning quickly Diacetyl so low, it's undetectable Flocculation: Medium-LowAttenuation: 73-77%Temperature Range: 45-68° F (7-20° C)Alcohol Tolerance: 9% We ship all liquid yeast with an ice pack and insulated bubble envelope.

  Description: Ripe banana esters (with a hint of pear) make this new, Omega Yeast original a standout for pastry stouts, milkshake IPAs and other modern ales. For prime banana esters, pitch at 68°F (20°C) and let free rise to 72-75°F (22-24°C). Unlike its parental Hefeweizen strain, Bananza is versatile because it is non-phenolic and therefore incapable of producing clove flavors that would mask its pure banana profile.

  Description: A “coast to coast” blend of one saison strain from a famous Northeast U.S. brewery and one Brett strain from a Northwest U.S. brewery. The blend quickly produces a pleasantly dry beer, filled out with aromas of white wine, hay, and mulled citrus.This strain tests positive for the STA1 gene, an indicator that this strain may have the ability to metabolize dextrins over time, resulting in higher than expected attenuation.Flocculation: LowAttenuation: 70-85%Temperature Range: 68-80° F (20-27° C)Alcohol Tolerance: 10% We ship all liquid yeast with an ice pack and insulated bubble envelope.

  Description: Saisonstein® is an Omega-original, genetic hybrid of two Saison strains, the French (OYL-026) and Belgian (OYL-027). It is versatile, aromatic and attenuative with a silky mouthfeel. It excels in high gravity and it ferments more reliably and thoroughly than its parents. It is spicy, complex, tart, dry and crisp with some bubblegum character present from its Belgian parent, and more fruit and fewer phenolics than its French parent.
