B45

Versatile and unique Belgian ale yeast, excellent choice for Belgian pale ales or IPAs.

Gnome is the yeast for brewing Belgian inspired beers in a hurry. This is one of the more flocculent Belgian strains, great for Belgian ales that need to be crystal clear without filtration. Gnome produces a nice phenolic character that plays nicely with hops, as well as with caramel and toffee malt flavors. Highly versatile, use Gnome in an array of Belgian beers. • Special order strain orders available to schedule with a 10L minimum and a 2-3 week lead time •

Beer Styles

Belgian IPA
Belgian IPA

An IPA with the fruitiness and spiciness derived from the use of Belgian yeast. The examples from Belgium tend to be lighter in color and more attenuated, similar to a tripel that has been brewed with more hops. This beer has a more complex flavor profile and may be higher in alcohol than a typical IPA.

Belgian Pale Ale
Belgian Pale Ale

A moderately malty, somewhat fruity, easy-drinking, copper-colored Belgian ale that is somewhat less aggressive in flavor profile than many other Belgian beers. The malt character tends to be a bit biscuity with light toasty, honey-like, or caramelly components; the fruit character is noticeable and complementary to the malt. The bitterness level is generally moderate, but may not seem as high due to the flavorful malt profile.

Blonde Ale
Blonde Ale

Easy-drinking, approachable, malt-oriented American craft beer, often with interesting fruit, hop, or character malt notes. Well-balanced and clean, is a refreshing pint without aggressive flavors.
