Straight outta Dusseldorf! White Labs' Dusseldorf Alt is a great strain for making the beers of its namesake. It tends to finish a slight bit on the sweet side, and does not accentuate hops like White Labs' 029 strain, allowing for a sweeter, more malt-forward beer. In addition to Dusseldorf alts, this strain has been used with great results when brewing Kolsches, German brown ales, American wheat, pale and brown ales, and specialty honey ales. This is regarded by more than one homebrewer as their German ale strain of choice.

ICE PACK INCLUDED
We include complimentary ice packs with ALL liquid yeast orders (if required), but cannot guarantee that the ice packs will stay cold during transit, and thus the yeast can potentially be exposed to hot temperatures. We highly recommend ordering dry yeast during the hot summer months or if you are ordering from a warmer climate. Many times during the winter an ice pack is not needed so we make the determination based on current temperatures and the destination!
