Wallonian Farmhouse (WLP4020) The Yeast Bay

Yeast Profile based on 25 recipes

Isolated from a unique farmhouse-style ale that hails from the Walloon region of Belgium, this strain of STA1+ Saccharomyces cerevisiae imparts a slight earthy funk and tart character to the beer, and is a very mild producer of slightly spicy and mildly smokey flavor compounds. We recommend controlling the dryness by adding malts or adjuncts to the mash tun that will lend some body and residual sweetness to the beer. This strain exhibits high diastatic activity.
