The probable origin of the Belgian White yeast is Hoegaarden, Belgium. It is similiar to some White Beers, Grand Crus, Doubles, and Spiced beers. Some commercial examples include Celis Wit, Hoegaarden, and Blanc de Brugge. This is a yeast with a complex flavor profile which produces a spicy phenolic character with low ester production. Phenols tend to dominate most flavors and dissipates with age. Ferments fairly dry with a finish which compliments malted and unmalted wheat and oats. Sometimes used in conjunction with lactic acid bacteria to produces a sharper finish. This strain may be a slow starting yeast with true top cropping characteristics. Flocculation is low, with yeast staying suspended with proteins in a well designed beer. Alcohol tolerance approximately 10-11% ABV. Flocculation - medium; apparent attenuation 72-76%. (62-75 F, 16-24 C).
