White Labs WLP029 German/Kolsch Ale - Next Generation

Sourced from a small brewpub in Cologne, Germany, this strain is fitting for German ales such as kölsch and altbier. Known for accentuating hop flavor and bitterness while creating crisp, clean lager like characters. It performs exceptionally well at temperatures ranging from 65 to 69°F (18-20°C) and does not ferment well below 62°F (17°C) after peak fermentation. Typically has low flocculation characteristics after the first generation.

Attenuation: 72 - 78%
Flocculation: Medium
Temp Range: 65 - 69°F
Alcohol Tolerance: 12% 

Our goal in creating PurePitch^® Next Generation for Homebrewers was to provide a product that will allow hobbyists and small scale brewers a convenient and modular package to pitch a consistent 7.5 million cells/mL; a commercially recommended pitching rate for standard ale ranges. The same package has proven to be an optimization to PurePitch^® for larger professional brewers for over a year.
