Lactobacillus Delbrueckii from White Labs is a wonderful strain of lactic acid bacteria! This is used in the production of a range of sour beer styles, and can be used to impart some lactic sourness and acidity, as well as used in conjunction with other strains of yeast such as saccharomyces, brettanomyces, and pediococcus, as well as sour blends. Lactobacillus is famously found in Berliner Weiss beers, but is also a sour contributor in lambics, sour browns, and guezes. Give your next beer a sour edge with lactobacillus delbrueckii from White Labs!

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!
