Species: Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Profile: An excellent yeast strain for use in Belgian dark strong ales. This strain has a relatively “clean profile” which allows a rich malt and distinctive ethanol character to shine. Delicate dried fruit esters can be produced when used at higher fermentation temperatures or in a high gravity wort.
Belgian strong-ale recipe alternatives. Abbey, tripel and strong-ale strains produce different ester/spice profiles; match the desired style and alcohol tolerance. Compare attenuation, fermentation temperature, alcohol tolerance and the package pitching guidance before switching; these are recipe alternatives, not a claim that the cultures are identical.
