Whitbread is a strain of yeast that can produce a range of English and British style beers. More robust than Wyeast's 1098 British Ale, beers made with Whitbread often have a true English character, with a mild fruitiness that accentuates malt character. While it can be a temperamental yeast that lags if not treated properly, its higher flocculation levels means it is capable of producing brilliantly clear and delicious beers.
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!
