Description

WLP570 hails from the famous region of East Flanders. This versatile yeast can produce light Belgian ales all the way to high gravity Belgian beers (12% ABV). A combination of fruitiness and phenolic characteristics dominate the flavor profile. Some sulfur is produced during fermentation, which will dissipate following the end of fermentation.

  • Optimum Fermentation Temp: 68–78°F
  • Flocculation: Low
  • Attenuation: 73–78%
  • Alcohol Tolerance: High (10–15%)
  • Cell Count: 100+ Billion
Wyeast Equivalent: Belgian Strong – WY1388
 
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.

Superior phenolics, poor flocculation
Given that I am the person who originally cultivated this yeast from van Steenberge Gulden Draak and gave it to Chris White in about 1996, I am prejudiced.

This is my "go to" Belgian yeast with lovely phenolics and does not produce hardly any banana when fermented very warm. When I was propagating it, it was a much poorer flocculator than after Chris cleaned it up. It is still not a very good flocculator. However, it produces a lovely aromatic character and clovey phenolic taste with much spicy complexity. It is not exceptionally tolerant of high gravity wort, so if you plan on making a beer with an OG of over 1.080, you need to grow it up in a couple of batches of beer first. I have successfully fermented a 1.122 wort down to 1.024, but only with a huge amount of yeast slurry from two previous batches. Belgian Golden Strong made with this yeast was awarded a Gold in 2001 and 2002 in NHC First Round and a Silver at NHC final round in 2002. And, a Belgian Dark Strong brewed that same year, continued to get better with age for the next 12 years, but sadly is all gone.

I LOVE THIS YEAST!!!!!!
