Heller Bock Saphir

Top-fermenting yeast {type Koelsch} . Quite intriguing as nobody appears to have used a “koelsch style yeast” to ferment strong beers such as bockbeer, barley wine, old ale, etc. The top-fermenting Koelsch yeast has done a marvelous job in creating its distinct subtle fruity esters in this barley wine style while at the same time very successfully fighting its way through all the complex malt sugars thrown at it. Bock beer dry-hopped with Saphir hop flowers for eight weeks.
