From the Ardennes region of Belgium, White Labs WLP545 Belgian Strong Ale yeast is a classic yeast strain that produces moderate levels of ester and spicy phenolic character. It typically results in a dry yet balanced finish. This yeast is well suited for Belgian dark strongs, Abbey ales, and Christmas beers. White Labs yeast is world-renowned for quality and innovation, certified kosher, GMO free, and subject to thorough quality analysis before being packaged. This yeast comes packaged in White Labs' PurePitch packaging using the revolutionary FlexCell process, which creates yeast that has never been transferred or exposed to the environment. The PurePitch packaging is a recyclable, flexible material that allows for increased breathability, reducing the chance of gas buildup and maintaining the optimal environment for yeast.
