About

Lallemand's flagship New England IPA strain, selected for soft, juicy, hazy beers with elevated ester character and a profile close to popular liquid NEIPA strains. Medium-low flocculation preserves haze, and the strain is biotransformation-active, working with hop compounds to produce tropical and stone-fruit notes beyond what the hops contribute on their own.
