More Info
From the each product description, check product pages for current description, price and availability:

This first yeast in the WildBrew™ series is a great choice for innovative, sessionable sour beers with refreshing acidity and notes of stone fruit. With high attenuation, high flocculation and good head retention, WildBrew™ Philly Sour is an ideal yeast for traditional styles such as Berliner Weisse, Gose, American Lambic Style, American Wild Ales and its resistance to hops make it perfect for Sour IPA’s.
Beer Styles: Berliner Weisse, Gose, lambic-style, American Wild, and Sour IPAs

Lallemand | Sourvisiae® Ale Yeast | Lactic Acid Producing Dry Beer Yeast via MoreBeer
More Info
From the each product description, check product pages for current description, price and availability:
Sourvisiae® is a bioengineered ale yeast strain (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) capable of producing lactic acid during fermentation to provide brewers with an easy, reproducible, and mono-culture product for sour-style beer production.
Sourvisiae® contains a single genetic modification, a lactate dehydrogenase gene from a food microorganism, which enables the yeast to produce high levels of lactic acid, the main compound that gives sour beers their flavor. Sourvisiae® allows the brewer to ferment and sour the beer in one simple step, reducing cross-contamination risks, lowering costs, cutting total process time, and allowing brewers to obtain a consistent product. The brewing process is conducted without any modifications; Sourvisiae® is pitched just like conventional yeast and ferments in a normal fermentation time. Sourvisiae® does not produce other flavor compounds associated with Brettanomyces, Lachancea, or Lactic Acid Bacteria, providing a cleaner and more reproducible souring process, with much shorter fermentation times.
Microbiological Properties
Classified as a bioengineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a top-fermenting yeast. Finished product is released to the market only after passing a rigorous series of tests. *According to the ASBC and EBC methods of analysis.
Typical Analysis of Sourvisiae® Yeast:
Brewing Properties
In Lallemand’s standard conditions, wort at 20°C (68°F), Sourvisiae® yeast exhibits:
The optimal temperature range for Sourvisiae® yeast when producing traditional styles is 15°C (59°F) to 22°C (72°F).
Fermentation rate, fermentation time and degree of attenuation are dependent on inoculation density, yeast handling, fermentation temperature and nutritional quality of the wort.
Attenuation may appear lower due to the formation of lactic acid. Production of lactic acid does not result in a loss of CO2. When sugar is consumed to produce lactic acid, there is no change in density. Therefore, the amount of residual sugar in the finished beer is lower than the final density would imply.
This yeast produces a very acidic beer, with final beer pHs in the range of 3.0 and lactic acid in the range of 8 – 15g/L. Vigorous fermentation can be completed within 5 days.
The resulting flavor and aroma profile of the beer is a slightly fruity acidic beer. Because of the resulting low pH and highly acidic conditions, we do not recommend re-pitching this yeast.
Flavor and Aroma
Tangy, sour, slightly fruity
NOTE: THIS PRODUCT IS ONLY ELIGIBLE FOR SHIPMENT IN THE UNITED STATES.

Barebottle Brew Co has made the recipe for The Unsinkable Tartanic Sour Ale available to homebrewers!
Thank you Barebottle for giving back to the homebrewing community!
Updated: April 15, 2025
From MoreBeer… “Beer lovers rejoice! Vinnie from Russian River Brewing Co. has released his Consecration recipe to us, and we’re very proud to be able to offer it to the homebrewing community. Consecration is a sour dark ale aged in a Cabernet Sauvignon barrel. It is aged for 4 to 8 months with currants and brettanomyces. You can look for rich flavors of chocolate truffle, spice, tobacco, currants, and a bit of Cabernet.
What sets this kit apart from any other kit out there, is the fact that we include a chunk of an actual consecration barrel in each one! Whether or not the bacteria from the original beer will form their own colony in your beer is hard to prove right or wrong. Either way, we think it is pretty cool!”

Add to your favorite homebrew recipe and more. I’ve added tart cherry concentrate to a Flanders Red that I brewed. I used Jamil’s Recipe from Brewing Classic Styles and fermented with Wyeast Roeselare. Note the the addition of tart cherries is not in the the original recipe. The beer was fantastic.

Lambic (Classic Beer Style Series) Kindle Edition by Jean-Xavier Guinard is part of the Classic Beer Style Series of books. This title may also be available in print.
More Info
From the book description, check product page for current description, price and availability:
After studying this unusual, fruity beer style extensively in Belgium and at the University of California-Davis Department of Fermemtation Studies, Jean-Xavier Guinard presents his findings with detail and historical intrigue.
This book was originally released in 1990 as part of the Classic Beer Styles Series. That series devotes an entire book to a single beer style and covers many beer styles. For whatever reason this specific title went out of print. Just this title, the rest, or most at least most of the rest of series, remained in print. This led to some very interesting pricing. Some sellers had stocks of brand new books. Supply and demand took hold and it wasn’t uncommon to see this title sell for $100 or $200 or even more for a new copy. Used copies were, and generally are, available for less, but generally very expensive, at least in my opinion. Finally, in 2016, this title was released on the Kindle platform and now, generally sells for what I would call a reasonable price. Get the current price below.
Kindle Edition books can be viewed on your Kindle Device or on free reader applications available for your iPhone, Android or Windows smart phone – and for your web browser via Amazon’s Cloud Reader.
