WLP072 White White Labs French Ale Liquid Ale Yeast Next Generation

The WLP072 White Labs French Ale Liquid Ale Yeast Next Generation is a clean strain that perfectly complements malt flavor. This yeast is ideal for brewing Belgian Pale Ale, Biere de Garde, and Saison. The yeast produces low to moderate esters when the fermentation temperature is below 70°F (21°C) and moderate to high ester character when the temperature is above 70°F (21°C). The WLP072 yeast strain is known for its low diacetyl production, making it an excellent choice for brewers seeking a smooth, balanced flavor profile in their beer.

This yeast has a medium to high flocculation level and an attenuation of 68% - 75%, making it a versatile option for various brewing styles. With an alcohol tolerance of medium (5-10%), it can be used in a range of beer types. The optimal fermentation temperature for this yeast is between 63° - 73° F (17° - 23° C). It has been tested for STA1 and the result is negative, indicating that it does not contain the STA1 gene, which is associated with super-attenuation in beer, a characteristic undesirable in certain beer styles.
