Discover Lallemand’s New Limited Release Series and Northern IPA Yeast

We are thrilled to announce the upcoming release of Lallemand Brewing’s newest line of brewing yeasts, the Lallemand Limited Release Series.

Lallemand Brewing Limited Release Yeast Series

Under the trusted umbrella brand LalBrew®, this series promises the same high standards of quality, repitchability, and technical support that you have come to expect. Our Limited Release yeasts are one-time productions, tailored for brewers who are passionate about exploring new trends, delving into historical strains, and experimenting with novel flavors and styles.

LalBrew Aurora™ Northern IPA Yeast

The first of our Limited Release yeasts is LalBrew® Aurora Northern IPA Yeast. Aurora was meticulously chosen for its robust fermentation characteristics at low temperatures and fruity expression. This strain is a Saccharomyces Cerevisiae targeted broadly at IPA styles, and particularly the new Northern IPA style.

Northern IPA: A New Era of Flavor

The Northern IPA is a style identified by our team as part of the gradual evolution of North American IPA . It incorporates the clean drinkability of the modern West Coast IPA with a more prominent yeast aroma profile compared to typically neutral West Coast strains.

The Northern IPA utilizes a high attenuation ale strain fermented at cooler temperatures to achieve a flavor profile that is clean, crisp, and dry. Compared to other IPAs, the Northern IPA presents as dry and more drinkable with low specialty malt usage. It may use hops from any origin but should showcase modern and hop-forward characteristics.

Join us in welcoming the Lallemand Brewing Limited Release Series, and dive into the innovative world of brewing with LalBrew® Aurora Northern IPA Yeast.
