Species: Brettanomyces bruxellensis
Profile: This strain of wild yeast was isolated from brewery cultures in the Brussels region of Belgium. It produces the classic “sweaty horse blanket” character of indigenous beers such as gueuze, lambics and sour browns and may form a pellicle in bottles or casks. The strain is generally used in conjunction with S. cerevisiae, as well as other wild yeast and lactic bacteria. At least 3-6 months aging is generally required for flavor to fully develop.
Metric Temperature Range: 15-24 °C
Flocculation: Medium
ABV: 12
IN-STOCK YEAST: We maintain stock of high-selling liquid yeasts in the shop, to make it easy for anyone who needs liquid yeast in a hurry. These will always be sold within the best before date. If a strain is out of stock, then it won't show up as an option for you to purchase. If you want the freshest liquid yeast, or if we are out of stock, consider using the pre-order option. Pre-ordered yeasts are ordered directly from the manufacturer on your behalf and we do not use in-stock yeast to fulfil pre-orders.
PREORDER DEADLINE: Every 2 months we place a liquid yeast order with Wyeast. All pre-orders placed will be part of our next order from the supplier, subject to the supplier having your pre-ordered strain in stock.
We place our orders on or after the 20th of the month. The deadline to ensure your pre-order is included is midnight the day before.
All pre-orders will be available for pickup or shipping after we receive the yeast which is usually around the first week of the month.
*Note: we will ship your order when your yeast arrives, so if you wish to place an order for other items and want to receive them sooner, please place a separate order.
ORDER SCHEDULE: We will place an order for Wyeast in January, March, May, July, September and November.
