Compare Transatlantic Berliner Blend to others »
Transatlantic Berliner Blend is a blend of a clean Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain (Germany), a healthy dose of Lactobacillus brevis – Strain TYB282 (Mexico) isolates, and a touch of our Beersel Brettanomyces Blend (Belgium) and Brettanomyces bruxellensis - Strain TYB184 (US). This culture will ferment to a crisp dryness over time and produce the trademark Berliner Weisse lactic acid backbone, with a touch of Brettanomyces tart citrus character and funk.
