  • Omega Yeast is founded on curiosity and innovation, expertly producing common workhorse varieties and many unique strains

Put down your torch and pitchfork frightened villager, this strain means you no harm. In fact, Saisonstein’s Monster is here to help you brew the best saison possible! An Omega-original, OYL500 is a genetic hybrid of their French saison and Belgian saison strains. It is versatile, aromatic and attenuative with a silky mouthfeel. It excels in high gravity and ferments reliably and thoroughly. It is spicy, complex, tart, dry and crisp with some bubblegum character present from its Belgian parent, and more fruit and fewer phenolics than its French parent. Attenuation is 80-90% or more.

Attenuation: 80-90%
Flocculation: Low
Alcohol Tolerance: 11% ABV
Optimum Fermentation Temp: 65-78°F
Cell Count: 225 Billion
 

Please Note: For best results we Always recommend ordering an Ice Pack with your liquid yeast. Ice Packs can be found below in the "You might Also Need" section.

Please Note: When choosing an ice pack option beware that the liquid yeast will not arrive cold even when shipped together. Ice packs and insulated mailing options are designed to keep the yeast colder for longer during shipment, but they will not ensure that your yeast arrives cold. We will not replace liquid yeast that arrives warm. During warmer months we strongly recommend you choose dry yeast.

Hard to mess up using this strain
I’ve made 7 saisons using this strain and every one of them has been awesome. Late hop/whirlpool additions of eukanot play amazing with this
