Who can resist the Champagne of the North? Berliner Weiss is a traditional low alcohol sour beer from Berlin that drinks tart and light, perfect for mixing with woodruff or raspberry syrup on a hot summer's day. With White Labs' Berliner Weiss blend, you can make wonderful examples of this style at home! White Labs has combined a German weizen yeast and a culture of lactobacillus bacteria to give you a winning combination! Balanced just right, beers made with this blend come out light, with tartness developing from lactic acid produced by the lactobacillus yeast. This yeast can produce a lot of sulfur during fermentation, but this will dissipate with time, leaving a wonderful and refreshing Berliner Weiss style beer!

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!
