Lallemand WildBrew™ Philly Sour Yeast – 500g Bulk Brick

Description

WildBrew™ Philly Sour is a unique species of Lachancea selected from nature for its ability to produce both lactic acid and ethanol in a single fermentation step. This 500g bulk brick is the perfect solution for commercial breweries producing Gose, Berliner Weisse, and other tart ales without the need for kettle souring or bacterial inoculation. Philly Sour produces a clean, refreshingly tart profile with subtle notes of red stone fruit.

Brewery Recipe Tip: To maximize lactic acid production, ensure your wort contains enough simple sugars (glucose) and maintain a fermentation temperature between 68°F and 86°F. This yeast is a slow starter compared to S. cerevisiae; do not panic if activity takes 24-36 hours to begin. No separate “souring” phase is required—just pitch and ferment.
