96,00 €

A dried version of a yeast strain isolated from a kveik isolate from the Hornindial region in Norway. Similar to other kveik strains like Voss this is a thermotolerant strain.
Higher temperatures increase the production of tropical fruit esters, this yeast is also great for dark styles such as imperial stouts.

Great for IPA’s and pale ales this yeast produces flavours of tangerine, pineapple and mango. A very high rate of fermentation and flocculation at higher temperatures.
