LalBrew® BRY-97 is an American West Coast-style ale yeast that was selected from the Siebel Institute Culture Collection for its ability to produce high quality ales. LalBrew® BRY-97 is a neutral strain with a high flocculation ability that can be used to make a wide variety of American-style beers.
Quick start and vigorous fermentation, which can be completed in 4 days if kept above 63° F. The aroma is slightly estery, almost neutral and does not display malodours when properly handled. It may tend, because of its high flocculation, to slightly reduce hop bitterness levels. Best when used at traditional ale temperatures (62 - 72° F) and after re-hydration in the recommended manner (see packaging for re-hydration procedure).
Traditional ales made with LalBrew® BRY-97 include but are certainly not limited to Cream Ale, American Wheat, Scotch Ale, American Pale Ale, American Amber, American Brown, American IPA, American Stout, Russian Imperial Stout, Imperial IPA, Roggen/Rye, Old Ale and American Barleywine.
