White Labs WLP029 German Ale-Kolsch Yeast

Sourced from a small brewpub in Cologne, Germany, this strain is fitting for German ales such as kölsch and altbier. Known for accentuating hop flavor and bitterness while creating crisp, clean lager like characters. It performs exceptionally well at temperatures ranging from 65 to 69°F (18-20°C) and does not ferment well below 62°F (17°C) after peak fermentation. Typically has low flocculation characteristics after the first generation.

Ice Pack Shipping Does Not Always Guarantee Yeast Will Arrive Cold

Kindly note that selecting an ice pack option does not guarantee that liquid yeast will arrive cold, even when shipped together. The ice packs and insulated mailing options are meant to prolong the coldness of the yeast during shipment, not to ensure it arrives in a cold state. It’s important to note that we cannot replace liquid yeast that arrives warm. We suggest opting for dry yeast in warmer months to avoid any potential issues. Additionally, to avoid leaving the shipment outside, we recommend sending the package to a location where someone will be present at the time of shipment or tracking the shipment to make sure someone is present to receive it.
