Lallemand LalBrew® Verdant IPA Yeast, in its 11g format, is specifically engineered for crafting flavorful and aromatic India Pale Ales. Developed in collaboration with Verdant Brewing Co., a UK-based brewery renowned for their IPAs and hop-forward beers, this yeast strain is ideal for producing a range of IPA styles, including New England, American, and English IPAs.
Verdant IPA Yeast is celebrated for its ability to enhance hop aromatics and flavors, delivering a beer with a complex bouquet of fruit-forward esters. It is particularly noted for producing notes of apricot, citrus, and tropical fruit, which complement the hop profile of IPAs. This yeast allows for a moderate to high attenuation, resulting in a beer that is both flavorful and refreshingly drinkable.
The recommended fermentation temperature for LalBrew® Verdant IPA Yeast ranges from 18°C to 23°C (64°F to 73°F). At these temperatures, the yeast performs optimally, producing a balanced ester profile that supports the beer's hop character without overwhelming it. Its moderate flocculation ensures the signature hazy appearance that is often desired in modern IPA styles.
In addition to IPAs, this yeast is versatile enough to be used in other ale styles where enhanced fruitiness and a soft, balanced profile are desired. Its robust performance across a range of brewing conditions makes it a reliable choice for brewers seeking to create beers with a pronounced yet well-rounded hop flavor and aroma.
Lallemand LalBrew® Verdant IPA Yeast is thus an excellent choice for brewers aiming to capture the essence of contemporary IPA brewing, offering a perfect blend of traditional and modern yeast characteristics to elevate the hop-forward experience of the beer.
