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.

Getting harder to find this strain and the similar one from Wyeast 3333 locally lately. Glad to see that MooreBeer is still carrying one of them.

Nice yeast with the scent I like
Just bottled the brew after two weeks fermentation. The color is great and the scent is awesome. In a week I will open a bottle and give it a try.
Here is that milky cloud of yeast goodness that makes a great Hefeweizen

Great yeast for clove-heavy Hefes
I'm very happy with how this yeast performed. I pitched half a pouch for 2.5 gallons and fermented at the higher end of White Labs recommendations (68-69).

When it first finished conditioning I was surprised by the amount of banana considering this is the "less banana" version of 300. There was just a barely perceptible amount of clove once it warmed up a bit. It still tasted great, but not what I expected.

After just a couple more weeks of conditioning at fridge temps the banana died way down and the clove has come to the forefront. Now the main player is a nice spicy clove flavor with some banana hiding in the background. It's amazing how different of a beer it is from just a couple weeks.

I would absolutely buy this again...after I brew a batch with 300 to compare the two.

My FAV German Hefe and Dunkle Yeast
My FAV German Hefe and Dunkle Yeast of ALL TIME!!! Pitch and hold temp low for first 4 days then let it "free rise" but not above 70 degrees in primary for 14 to 21 days.

Excellent Hefeweissen strain
This yeast creates the flavor profile I'm looking for in an authentic Bavarian Hefeweissen. Some of the other strains I tried left way too much of either a "vanilla" profile, or a "banana" profile. This yeast is spot on, to me. That being said, ferment your brew with this yeast at no more than 65 degrees. This yeast is very frisky, and the kreusen will blow out through your air lock and blow off tube, making a pretty good sized mess.

Rich, clovey, easy to use, great yeast
I had mixed results with other weizen yeasts. This was one I tried on a lark for a dunkleweizen. Turned out fantastic. Very easy to use, not fussy, with a wonderful flavor profile. In a 1.054 wort, I still created moderate banana esters, but also a touch of fruit and rich clovey spice.

I fermented at 62F ambient. It finishes slightly tart. It will not attenuate near the 80%. It achieved a 74% attenuation in both a dunkleweizen and a weizenbock. So if you plan for a 73% attenuation you will not be disappointed.

Great yeast for a wonderfully balanced bavarian wheat.
