Wyeast | 1388 Belgian Strong Ale | Beer Yeast | Activator Smack-Pack System™ | 100 Billion Cells

    Description

    • 1388 is the classic choice for brewing golden strong ale due to its high alcohol tolerance and complex ester profile with subtle phenolics
    • Malt flavors and aromas will remain even with a well attenuated dry, tart finish
    • Activator Smack-Pack System™ "proofs" the yeast and shortens lag time when it hits your wort
    • When smacked, the Activator™ packet releases sugars and nutrients to initiate the culture's metabolism
    • Wyeast has been a pioneer in craft brewing for over 35 years and is committed to creating the finest fermentation products available
    • Although beneficial, cultures do not need to be activated prior to inoculation

    The classic choice for brewing golden strong ales. This alcohol tolerant strain will produce a complex ester profile balanced nicely with subtle phenolics. Malt flavors and aromas will remain even with a well attenuated dry, tart finish. It may continue to produce CO2 for an extended period after packaging or collection.

    Attenuation: 74-78%
    Flocculation: Low
    Alcohol Tolerance: 12-13%
    Optimum Fermentation Temp: 64-80°F
    Cell Count: 100 Billion

    Styles:
    Belgian Blond Ale
    Belgian Golden Strong Ale
    Belgian Specialty Ale
    Belgian Tripel
    Bière de Garde
    Christmas/Winter Specialty Spiced Beer

    For best results we always recommend ordering an ice pack with your liquid yeast.

    Please Note: When choosing an ice pack option beware that the liquid yeast will not arrive cold even when shipped together. Ice packs and insulated mailing options are designed to keep the yeast colder for longer during shipment, but they will not ensure that your yeast arrives cold. We will not replace liquid yeast that arrives warm. During warmer months we strongly recommend you choose dry yeast.
