LalBrew® New England American East Coast Ale Yeast is a true hazy IPA powerhouse, known for producing juicy, tropical aroma with a smooth, pillowy mouthfeel. This strain is perfect for brewing New England IPAs, Milkshake IPAs, and other hazy styles that emphasize late hop additions and aroma over bitterness.
This yeast strain exhibits low flocculation and high ester production, allowing it to remain in suspension for that classic hazy appearance. It imparts fruity notes of peach, apricot, and tropical fruit, especially when paired with modern American hops.
What sets LalBrew® New England apart is its natural expression of the β-glucosidase enzyme, which helps unlock bound hop aroma compounds during fermentation. This enhances biotransformation, intensifying citrus and tropical fruit flavors for next-level hop aroma and complexity.
Strain Type: Saccharomyces cerevisiae (American East Coast Ale)
Attenuation: Medium to High (73–77%)
Flocculation: Low—ideal for hazy beers
Alcohol Tolerance: Up to 9% ABV
Fermentation Temperature: 15–22°C (59–72°F)
Ideal For: New England IPA, Hazy IPA, Milkshake IPA, Pale Ale
Key Feature: Expresses β-glucosidase enzyme for enhanced hop biotransformation
Its low flocculation keeps haze in suspension, while its fruity ester profile and β-glucosidase activity unlock big tropical hop aroma. It’s the ultimate haze-maker.
β-glucosidase is an enzyme that helps break down bound hop glycosides, releasing extra hop aroma compounds during fermentation. This intensifies juicy, tropical hop flavors in hazy IPAs.
Technically yes, but it's designed to remain in suspension. If clarity is your goal, a different strain like Safale US-05 may be more appropriate. This one thrives in hazy environments.
Keep it refrigerated. Pitch directly into your cooled wort (18–22°C), or rehydrate for better viability in high-gravity or cold fermentations.
Not typically for 5-gallon batches. But for high-gravity beers or fermentations below 64°F, a starter or second pack can ensure a healthy fermentation.
