LalBrew® BRY-97 American West Coast Ale Dry Yeast
LalBrew® BRY-97 American West Coast Ale Dry Yeast (Danstar) is a perfect alternate for American styles with a slight estery aroma that makes it less neutral than other strains. Fast fermentation and high flocculation allow for a quick turn around time. Gluten Free
LalBrew® BRY-97 American West Coast Ale Dry Yeast (Danstar) was selected from the Siebel Institute Culture Collection and is used by a number of commercial breweries to produce different types of ale. It is a classic American ale yeast that offers the convenience and long shelf life of dried yeast along with high quality standards and excellent performance.
Quick, clean, and well-attenuating are the chief properties of this yeast. It is most comparable to the “Chico”-style strains. In our experience, this strain stays clean at relatively high temperatures (up to 78F), and flocculation is marginally better than other “Chico” strains. Due to the slightly higher flocculation tendencies, it does slightly reduce bittering levels in the finished beer.
