"I used this in a cream ale and fermented at the low end of the temperature range at 20C. It produced a very clean beer, reaching final gravity in about a week. The Voss Kveik is very different, I think that leaves a flavour I dont enjoy. I far prefer this Lutra Kveik and would use it again as its is very clean."
"ripped through a 1. 057 dark ale wort in 2 days, gave it an extra 18 hours after that to clear and cold crashing now. ~1. 010 FG roughly. Looks to have flocced out super well, smells great, taste is bang on. All the vigour of Voss but the super clean flavour makes it suitable for more styles."
"This stuff chewed through a lager wort in just under 2 days, the taste is pretty neutral, and I had the temp up at around 28-30 degrees. Very impressed!"
"Kveik Lutra arrived on a 40 deg heat day. Still was not affected and fermented the brew quickly. Very happy with the service and brew results."
"I've got this yeast going in a 1 gallon demijohn of mead, and it'll be a while before I can taste it and say anything about this yeast really. All I'll say is that it is quite resilient to change in temperature: over the last two weeks, it has fermented actively in temperatures from 20C to low 30sC. Keen to see how it tastes!"
"Packs arrived without any problem, ready to go for my next "I have no cooling" pseudo-lager!"
"Great Yeast for warm fermenting lager"
"Such a good clean strain that is really temperature tolerant. Perfect for making. quick turnaround pseudolagers that taste great. Shipped in good condition with the yeast still very viable."
"Awesome yeast. I used it for a hard lemonade that I've always had trouble fermenting with cider yeasts. It smashed it."
"Using this yeast for everything, as high speed and high floc makes a great product in little time. Works great on larger and seltzer so far will try more."
