Belgian Blond Ale, Belgian Dark Strong Ale, Belgian Golden Strong Ale, Belgian Specialty Ale, Bire de Garde, Saison
French Saison Wyeast
WY3711
Species : Ale Fermentation Temp Range (F) : 65-83 Apparent Attenuation Range (%) : 85-95 Flocculation : Low Alcohol Tolerance : 12%
Pitching/Fermentation : Very temperature tolerant, very fast, very very highly attenuative. Lower in overall ester production compared to other saison yeasts, less fruit and subtle spice. Awesome with hops.
Notes : A very versatile strain that produces Saison or farmhouse style biers as well as other Belgian style beers that are highly aromatic (estery), peppery, spicy and citrusy. This strain enhances the use of spices and aroma hops, and is extremely attenuative but leaves an unexpected silky and rich mouthfeel. This strain can also be used to restart stuck fermentations or in high gravity beers.
Best Styles : Belgian Blond Ale, Belgian Dark Strong Ale, Belgian Golden Strong Ale, Belgian Specialty Ale, Bire de Garde, Saison
