LalBrew® Farmhouse Beer Yeast Lallemand 11g
LalBrew Farmhouse™ yeast is a remarkable hybrid beer yeast specifically selected for crafting Saison-style and farmhouse-style beers.
LalBrew Farmhouse™ is a non-diastatic hybrid that has been selected to make Saison-style and farmhouse-style beers. This product was selected using the most advanced breeding techniques. Classical and non-GMO methods were used to remove the STA 1 gene, responsible for the diastatic activity of Saison yeasts; therefore dextrin will not be metabolised, fermentation will finish faster and there is no risk of over attenuation and over carbonation after bottling or canning.

What makes LalBrew Farmhouse™ truly innovative? It’s a non-diastatic hybrid that eliminates the risk of cross-contamination associated with diastatic yeasts. At the same time, it retains all the attractive characteristics of Saison yeast: flavour, aroma profile, and high attenuation. The removal of the STA1 gene ensures that it won’t produce hydrogen sulphide (H₂S) off-flavours, enhancing the delightful Saison yeast aroma.
Tallboy and Moose, a brewery in Melbourne, trailed this yeast and achieved fantastic results. Their dry-hopped Saison called Crayzon exhibited pleasant complexity, with fruity esters of candied orange and citrus peel, balanced by spicy phenolics. LalBrew Farmhouse™ adapts well to different fermentation profiles, producing both clean, neutral beers and more farmhouse-like profiles with barnyard character.
So, if you’re dreaming of crafting a top-notch Saison or farmhouse beer, LalBrew Farmhouse™ is your yeast of choice
