A traditional, top-fermenting yeast that has a good balance between fruity esters, and warming spice phenolics. The yeast will leave some sweetness, and will drop bright if left long enough.
Characteristics:
Aroma – Belgian Wit yeast presents a very light spice with a hint of bubble-gum character. This yeast works exceptionally well with botanics.
Flavor/Mouthfeel – This yeast has a slightly suppressed Belgian character presenting as phenolic and dry, fruity and very complex character. The mouthfeel is smooth, light, dry and crisp.
Higher ABV Beers – With a medium attenuation this strain will struggle with extremely high alcohol beers over 8% ABV and may become stressed.
