WLP500 Monastery Ale Yeast - Next Generation

Now with more yeast, you get double the pitch. PurePitch® Next Generation is designed to pitch at a rate of 7.5 million cells/mL per 5 gallons/19 liters, a commercially recommended pitching rate for standard ale ranges. PurePitch® Next Generation has an improved proprietary film designed specifically for White Labs and allows for one-way off-gassing to reduce product inflation and deliver higher yeast health and longer shelf life.

Sourced from a Belgian monastery, this strain is ideal for Belgian quads, tripels and dubbels due to its high alcohol tolerance. It produces characteristic notes of plum and cherry with a hint of bubble gum. Lower fermentation temperatures (65-67°F/18-19°C) result in less fruity and more earthy beers.
