Omega Yeast favorites return!
Omega yeast Bananza, Sundew, and Cosmic Punch are back in stock!.
Bananza is loaded with ripe banana esters (with a hint of pear) make this new, Omega Yeast original a standout for pastry stouts, milkshake IPAs, and other modern ales. For prime banana esters, pitch at 68°F (20°C) and let free rise to 72 – 75°F (22 – 24°C). Unlike its parental Hefeweizen strain, Bananza is versatile because it is non-phenolic and therefore incapable of producing clove flavors that would mask its pure banana profile.
Sundew’s ripe strawberry, passion fruit, pear, and stone fruit combine to emphasize desirable notes in modern fruity hops. This Omega Yeast original strain was inspired by its parental strain’s fruit esters, which were originally obscured by Belgian phenolic character. Sundew, however, is non-phenolic and incapable of producing the spicy clove flavors that were previously competing with its pure, juicy red-fruit bouquet.
Cosmic Punch is a Thiolized version of our popular hazy strain, British Ale V (OYL-011), Cosmic Punch generates thiols through biotransformation, releasing tropical aromas experienced in southern hemisphere hops and New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. This punchy strain unleashes vibrant grapefruit, passion fruit, and guava notes. Expect the same performance and haze you get from British V, but with additional thiol aromas. Experiment with mash hopping or wine grape-derived products to push even more thiols.

Brewer’s Best Sours Featuring Philly Sour Yeast
These sour recipes are easy to craft and thanks to Lallemand’s Philly Sour yeast. Philly Sour yeast produces lactic acid before fermentation starts so you don’t require traditional long aging periods or the use of the kettle souring method. This yeast was discovered by the University of the Sciences right here in Philly!
Our three new Brewer’s Best Sour extract kits now in stock are:
• Pineapple Tart Sour Ale
• Pucker Peach Sour Ale
• Sour Mango Pale Ale
New Hops in the shop! Perfect for your Hazy IPA’s!
Sequoia is designed as a late kettle or dry hop for classic West Coast-inspired IPAs showcasing notes of tropical fruit, pineapple, mango, citrus, and pine. Its strong tropical fruit expression also makes it well-suited to hazy or juicy IPA, as well as other hop-forward styles.
