For best results we always recommend ordering an ice pack with your liquid yeast.

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.

Great yeast, but I may try other options next time.

While fermentation was great, this yeast will smell terrible the whole fermentation which isn’t an issue considering the yeast are doing their jobs, but the somewhat sulfuric smell will continue to linger until fully conditioned. I only rate this 4 stars to make aware if your looking for a fast turnaround yeast, then you may want something different, but if you plan to condition then the yeast is great.

Nice Yeast

It will put out a sulfur smell early on but it clears up and doesn't end up in the beer. I use this for wheat beers where I don't want the banana/clove Hefeweizen character.
