  • 3787 produces a nice balance of complex fruity esters and phenolics, making it desirable for use in other Belgian style ales as well
  • A classic Abbey strain for brewing Belgian dubbel or Belgian tripel
  • Activator Smack-Pack System™ "proofs" the yeast and shortens lag time when it hits your wort

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.

Dead Yeast
This is the last time I will use Wyeast. I've been brewing for years and always used White labs yeast. I ordered this by mistake and it was a mistake. Followed the directions and it's been 30 hours and no activity. So I'll spend more money at the local brew shop to get a tube of reputable White labs yeast.

Great yeast
Great growth and activity in the starter ~36 hours prior to pitch. Took off like an animal upon pitch, lots of blowout within 24-36 hours and bubbling away

Use Blow Off Tube
I have used this yeast twice this year, once for a 2.5 gallon batch of Tripel, brewed in July, and then bottle conditioned 4 months. It was a 10% ABV monster with lovely spicy phenolic yeast notes, grain bill, and hop additions were kept very simple to really let the yeast shine, and this turned into a favorite recipe I will be sure to repeat, it nailed Westmalle character. The other is a 5 gallon batch of Dubbel with holiday spices that will be getting kegged later this week and is currently in the fermenter. For both beers I made a starter the night before pitching, and in less than 24 hours after pitching, the yeast was at the top of the fermenter. Both times I barely caught it in time to make a makeshift blow-off tube, next time I'll set it up form the start. The Tripel started at 1.086 and fermented down to 1.008, and the Dubbel started at 1.070 and fermented down 1.012.This yeast flavorful, reliable, and aggressive, I would recommend this yeast all day everyday for any Belgian styles, and especially Abbey styles. Once last thing: before racking, cold crash your beer after fermentation completes, otherwise this yeast will stay in suspension. I would say the "medium" flocculation is a very low medium.

Trappist 3787
This is a very consistent Belgian yeast for high alcohol brews such as tripel and dark strong. This yeast gets off to a strong & quick start and ferments down to low gravity numbers. I have used this yeast many times and am very pleased. Provides some very good phenols as well and has that distinct Belgian flavor depending on the fermentation temperature you choose.

one of my favorite yeasts of all time
Attenuates quickly and thoroughly. Not finicky, and adds a very nice Belgian yeast character without being difficult to use like others (think Belgian saison 3724?)
