from a small, sophisticated, Belgian brewer’s spelt saison, Belgian Saison II
is earthy, spicy, peppery, tart and dry, with tropical fruit and citrus at
warm fermentation temperatures. It is a perfect strain for farmhouse ales and
saisons. It favors pitching in the upper 60s or low 70s and being allowed
free-rise from there. This strain tests positive for the STA1 gene, an indicator of Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. diastaticus. This strain may have the ability to metabolize dextrins over time, resulting in higher than expected attenuation. |
Omega Yeast Brett Blend #1 Where Da Funk? OYL-2 | Liquid | Very Low | 78-88 | 83.0% | 68 | 80 | One Brett-famous
Colorado brewery strain, plus two strains that were formerly classified as
Brett (but are now known to be Saccharomyces), result in huge tropical fruit
aromas that mingle well with fruity aroma hops. Note that aroma intensity
fades a bit during conditioning. Brett Blend #1: Where Da Funk? has a wide
temperature range, finishes very dry, and leaves neither much funk nor much
body (consider adding flaked oats for body). Mild funk level and low acidity
is consistent even with extended aging This strain tests positive for the STA1 gene, an indicator of Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. diastaticus, and is capable of fermenting dextrins, resulting in very high attenuation. |
Omega Yeast Brett Blend #2 Bit O’ Funk OYL-211 | Liquid | Very Low | 85-100 | 92.5% | 68 | 80 | Brett Blend #2: Bit
O’ Funk contains the two Saccharomyces strains from Brett Blend #1 (OYL-210)
for primary fermentation and is spiked with Brettanomyces bruxellensis for
development of classic, funkforward Brett character during secondary
fermentation. The bit ‘o funkiness will take extended time to develop (3
months or more) This strain tests positive for the STA1 gene, an indicator of Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. diastaticus, and is capable of fermenting dextrins, resulting in very high attenuation. |
Omega Yeast Brett Blend #3 Bring On Da Funk OYL- | Liquid | Very Low | 85-100 | 92.5% | 68 | 80 | Brett Blend #3: Bring

(OYL-210) spiked with both Brettanomyces bruxellensis and Brettanomyces
lambicus, plus two additional Brettanomyces isolates from a Brett-famous
Colorado brewery, plus two Brett isolates from an “intense” Belgian source to
equal a funky, fruity, complex 8-strain composition. The Brett character will
develop over time, as will acid production if exposed to oxygen. This strain tests positive for the STA1 gene, an indicator of Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. diastaticus, and is capable of fermenting dextrins, resulting in very high attenuation. |

farmhouse beer,” this unique yeast complements farmhouse beers with citrusy
esters and restrained phenols. The strain produces a character of lemon pith,
black pepper, and a soft mouthfeel. I sveikata! This strain tests positive for the STA1 gene, an indicator of Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. diastaticus. This strain may have the ability to metabolize dextrins over time, resulting in higher than expected attenuation. |
Omega Yeast Kolsch II OYL-044 | Liquid | Medium | 72-78 | 75.0% | 65 | 69 | This Kolsch strain is warmer fermenting than Kolsch I (OYL-017), flocculates much better and clears more quickly, so it is a little easier to manage. It is a lager-like ale strain that’s lightly fruity, crisp and clean with a hint of sulfur that disappears with age to leave a clean ale. Accentuates hop flavors. |
Omega Yeast Saisonstein's Monster OYL-500 | Liquid | Low | 80-90 | 85.0% | 65 | 78 | Saisonstein's Monster
is an Omega-original, genetic hybrid of two Saison strains, the French
(OYL-026) and Belgian (OYL-027). It is versatile, aromatic and attenuative
with a silky mouthfeel. It excels in high gravity and it ferments more
reliably and thoroughly than its parents. It is spicy, complex, tart, dry and
crisp with some bubblegum character present from its Belgian parent, and more
fruit and fewer phenolics than its French parent. Attenuation is 80-90% or
more. This strain tests positive for the STA1 gene, an indicator of Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. diastaticus, and is capable of fermenting dextrins, resulting in very high attenuation. |
Omega Yeast Tropical IPA OYL-200 | Liquid | Low | 85-100 | 92.5% | 75 | 85 | Tropical IPA is a
unique Saccharomyces strain formerly classified as a Brettanomyces strain,
that produces delicate, tart, tropical mango and pineapple fruit
characteristics with a clean finish. Try it at its higher temperatures to
bring out the tropical profile. It’s stubbornly non-flocculent, but worth
it. This strain tests positive for the STA1 gene, an indicator of Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. diastaticus, and is capable of fermenting dextrins, resulting in very high attenuation. |
Omega Yeast Voss Kveik OYL-061 | Liquid | Medium | 75-82 | 78.5% | 72 | 98 | A traditional Norwegian kveik directly from the Gjernes farmstead, Voss Kveik’s orange-citrus notes present throughout its wide temperature range. So, like the mango-honey profile of HotHead™ Ale (OYL-057), Voss Kveik’s orange-citrus is relatively clean across its fermentation temperature range and pairs well with citrusy, fruity hops. Fermentation speed takes off at higher temperatures. Non-phenolic. |
Omega Yeast West Coast Ale I OYL-004 | Liquid | Low/Med | 73-80 | 76.5% | 60 | 73 | Popularly called “Chico,” West Coast Ale I is a reliable, versatile and popular neutral foundation for displays of malts and hops. Often used as a house strain, it is highly attenuative and moderately flocculent. And it ferments crisp and clean with light citrus notes under 66° F (19° C). Also try DIPA (OYL-052) or British I (OYL-006) to highlight hops more, or West Coast II (OYL-009) and Scottish Ale (OYL-015) for malt displays. |

Wyeast Leuven Pale Ale 3538-PC | Liquid | Low | 70-76 | 73.0% | 64 | 75 | A complex alternative to the standard German wheat strain profile of 3068 Weihenstephan Weizen. This strain produces apple, pear, and plum esters in addition to the dominant banana character. The esters are complemented nicely by clove and subtle vanilla phenolics. The balance can be manipulated towards ester production through increasing fermentation temperature, increasing the wort density, and decreasing the pitch rate. Over pitching can result in a near complete loss of banana character. Decreasing the ester level will allow a higher clove character to be perceived. Sulfur is commonly produced, but will dissipate with conditioning. This strain is very powdery and will remain in suspension for an extended amount of time following attenuation. This is true top-cropping yeast and requires fermenter headspace of 33%. |

Wyeast Roeselare Ale Blend 3763 | Liquid | Varies | 80-80 | 80.0% | 65 | 85 | Our blend of lambic cultures produce beer with a complex, earthy profile and a distinctive pie cherry sourness. Aging up to 18 months is required for a full flavor profile and acidity to develop. Specific proportions of a Belgian style ale strain, a sherry strain, two Brettanomyces strains, a Lactobacillus culture, and a Pediococcus culture produce the desirable flavor components of these beers as they are brewed in West Flanders. Propagation of this culture is not recommended and will result in a change of the proportions of the individual components. This blend will produce a very dry beer due to the super-attenuative nature of the mixed cultures. |
