LalBrew® New England East Coast Ale Yeast – 11g

Ideal Yeast for Hazy and Juicy East Coast Ales

LalBrew® New England is an ale strain selected specifically for its ability to produce a unique fruit-forward ester profile desired in East Coast styles of beer. A typical fermentation with LalBrew® New England will produce tropical and fruity esters, notably stone fruits like peach. Through expression of a β-glucosidase enzyme, LalBrew® New England can promote hop biotransformation and accentuate hop flavor and aroma. This strain exhibits medium to high attenuation with medium flocculation, making it a perfect choice for East Coast style ales.

This 11g sachet is designed to ferment up to 6 gallons (23 liters) of wort, making it ideal for homebrewers.

Key Characteristics:

• Attenuation: 78% – 83%
• Flocculation: Medium
• Alcohol Tolerance: Up to 9% ABV
• Fermentation Temperature Range: 18°C – 25°C (64°F – 77°F)
• Aroma and Flavor Profile: Fruity, especially tropical and stone fruits

Perfect for Brewing:

• New England IPA (NEIPA)

• Hazy IPA

Usage Instructions:

• Pitching Rate: 100 – 200 g/hL to achieve a minimum of 5 – 10 million cells/mL
• Rehydration: Rehydrate by sprinkling the yeast on the surface of 10 times its weight in clean, sterilized water at 25°C – 30°C (77°F – 86°F). Leave undisturbed for 15 minutes, then stir to suspend completely. Adjust the temperature to that of the wort and inoculate without delay.

Our Commitment to Yeast Health

At SoCal Brewing Supply, we take yeast storage and viability very seriously (Yes, even Dry yeasts). We ensure yeast is always stored under optimal conditions, with 24-hour monitoring of refrigerator temperatures to prevent spikes that could negatively impact yeast health.

For Dry yeast shipments, we offer ice packs and insulated envelopes as an optional add-on for customers looking for extra protection during hotter months. It’s normal for ice packs to melt during transit; their purpose is to protect the yeast from extreme temperatures caused by external weather conditions.
