Description

This yeast produces a beer that is malty and well-balanced. Expect toasty flavors with malt-driven esters. Highly flocculent and a good choice for English-style pale ales, brown ales, and milds.

Biotransformation: Beta-lyase Activity


From our research, creating WLP077 Tropicale Yeast Blend. We found WLP037 Yorkshire Square Ale Yeast and WLP830 German Lager Yeast to have a relative high potential activity for beta-lyase biotransformation. Beta-lyase activity releases bound thiols from hops (sulfur-based compounds) into free thiols (passionfruit and guava aromas).  While there were other high-activity strains, most of these strains were POF+ or phenolic which overpowered the tropical flavors. Although these 2 strains, wouldn't normally be used in a Hazy IPA, they still have the potential to have some fun and creative interactions with hops for new expressive flavors and aromas.
