Wyeast 3944 Belgian Witbier Yeast

Produces a complex flavor profile with a spicy phenolic character and low ester production. Phenols tend to dominate other flavors and dissipate with age. Ferments fairly dry with a finish that compliments malted and unmalted wheat and oats. Sometimes used in conjunction with lactic acid bacteria to produces a sharper finish. This strain is a true top cropping yeast requiring full fermenter headspace.

Activator packs do not require the use of a yeast starter when pitching into a beer of starting gravity of 1.060 or lower.
