Lallemand LalBrew® New England Yeast, packaged in 11g sachets, is specifically developed for crafting East Coast American Ales, particularly the popular New England IPA (NEIPA) style. This yeast strain is celebrated for its ability to produce a fruity and tropical character, a hallmark of the hazy, juicy IPA varieties that define the New England style.Ideal for producing ales with a soft, rounded mouthfeel, LalBrew® New England Yeast promotes the expression of hop-derived aromas and flavors, such as peach, apricot, and tropical fruit, without overwhelming bitterness. This makes it perfect for brewers looking to create beers with a prominent fruit-forward character and a hazy appearance.
The optimal fermentation temperature for New England Yeast ranges from 15°C to 22°C (59°F to 72°F), which helps to enhance the production of desirable esters and fruity tones, while maintaining a balanced and smooth profile. This yeast is known for its medium to high attenuation and moderate flocculation, characteristics that contribute to the full-bodied texture and residual sweetness typical of NEIPA and other East Coast styles.
LalBrew® New England Yeast's ability to ferment fully while still leaving a certain degree of sweetness and body in the beer allows brewers to achieve the sought-after balance between flavor intensity and drinkability. It also has a good tolerance to alcohol, supporting the creation of both standard and higher-strength ales.
In summary, Lallemand LalBrew® New England Yeast is an essential ingredient for brewers aiming to capture the essence of the New England IPA style, offering a reliable and flavorful yeast choice that enhances the juicy, hazy characteristics of East Coast American Ales.
