These farmhouse yeasts are not miracle makers, however. Using them requires knowledge and experience just like any fermentation.

Water is the main ingredient in beer, and, though water itself is flavourless, the chemical composition can have an influence on the finished taste; indeed, some brewers regard it as "the most important ingredient in beer". [13] In particular, two styles of beer are especially noted for their water chemistry: pale ale, for which the process of Burtonisation is widespread; and Pilsner. I side with early Shaun Hill and present-day Marika Josephson in thinking that a beer that purports to be a farmhouse ale ought to, at the very least, have something to do with a farm, with local agriculture,” shares James Priest, owner of The Referend Bier Blendery. “I would also appreciate it if the brewing of saison necessarily meant that the season in which it was brewed was permitted to influence the beer’s character.” Below we’ve rounded up several of our favorite saison producers in the country. You’ll find a mix of readily accessible options, some likely available in your local craft beer bottle shop and a few that will be tough to find.

Make sure the alkalinity of your water can buffer the heavy-handed specialty malts. Water should be roughly 1:1 sulfate-to-chloride with about 50 ppm calcium ion. When using these guidelines as the basis for evaluating entries at competitions, competition organizers may create subcategories which reflect groups of entries based on presence or absence of peat smoke-derived attributes. Modern methods of producing lager were pioneered by Gabriel Sedlmayr the Younger, who perfected dark brown lagers at the Spaten Brewery in Bavaria, and Anton Dreher, who began brewing a lager in Vienna, Austria, in 1840–1841. With modern improved fermentation control, most lager breweries use only short periods of cold storage, typically 1–3 weeks. Some styles use one or more other grains as a key ingredient in the style, such as wheat beer, rye beer, or oatmeal stout.

This guide was much needed. Thank you! I’ll withhold the many questions and comments that are popping up for now but I do have some brief thoughts. I have brewed a few batches with Stelljen and Geiranger kveiks that you were kind enough to send me. The beers have tasted excellent but I must admit I enjoyed the beers made from both the most when I drank them within a week or two of fermenting. They fermented fast and clean over just a couple of days. The beer was malty, fruity, and quite delicious. Very nourishing with a smooth mouthfeel. I’m about a month into bottling some from each and, while I enjoy the beers bottled (stored in my cool cellar), they just don’t quite give me the same pleasure as the fresh brews. They’ve still got hints of fruitiness, the malt flavor has diminished a fair bit, and there are bits of tart and (very subtle) sour flavors. All in all, they’re well-balanced and pour clean, and clear. Some I did with aged hops with a very brief boil and one I did with yarrow and no boil. The raw yarrow ale seems to be smoothing out with age more so than the others so far. Definitely has more maltiness. Anyway, those are my observations so far. I don’t necessarily have any questions, unless you have some tips on bottling and still keeping that amazing malty, fruity viscous flavor profile. Reply There are far fewer studies in on Baltic and Russian farmhouse yeasts but at least we know that they are domesticated beer yeasts that are used for non-sour beers. Some Lithuanian strains are mixtures S. Cerevisiae yeast strains while some seem to contain only one strain (see Milk The Funk on Landrace Yeas t). Compared to kveik, Lithuanian strains seem to more often include Lactobacillus. Baltic and Russian generally produce phenolic flavor and this a major difference between Norwegian kveiks and other farmhouse yeasts.Well, obviously for traditional farmhouse ales, but they shine in various kinds of modern beers too. For modern brewers, the exotic and unusual fermentation flavors are perhaps the primary reason to use these yeasts. Superior performance is another: Perceived Malt Aroma & Flavor: Malty, caramel aroma may be present. A low to medium-low, soft and chewy caramel malt flavor should be present. I haven’t given up on using brewer’s yeast but the majority of my beers are fermented with kveiks and Baltic farmhouse yeasts. I see also a potential for meads and ciders (more about that below). What About the Flavors?
