About
Midwestern Ale yeast is a single strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae isolated from a storied brewery in the heartland of America, well suited for fermentation of a broad spectrum of worts. A relatively fast fermenter with good attenuation, expect this yeast to ferment cleaner with a low ester profile at the cooler fermentation temperatures, and produce a more pronounced ester profile at warmer fermentation temperatures. This yeast is a great choice for a versatile house yeast.
