Farmhouse Hybrid Saison-Style Yeast
Lallemand LalBrew® Farmhouse Hybrid Saison-Style Yeast
LalBrew® Farmhouse™ is a non-diastatic hybrid Saison yeast developed by Renaissance Yeast in Vancouver, BC. Using classical and non-GMO breeding methods, the Renaissance team removed the STA1 gene responsible for the diastatic activity of traditional Saison strains, while retaining normal brewing sugar utilization. The result is a beautifully dry Saison without the risk of over-attenuation or over-carbonation after packaging. Patented technology from the UC Davis also ensures the strain does not produce sulfurous off-flavors, letting the classic Saison yeast aroma shine.
Key benefits of LalBrew Farmhouse™:
- Non-diastatic hybrid strain: STA1 gene removed for normal fermentation
- No risk of over-attenuation or over-carbonation after packaging
- Patented UC Davis technology prevents sulfurous off-flavors
Ideal Styles for Farmhouse™ Hybrid Saison-Style Yeast:
True to its name, Farmhouse™ works best on farmhouse and Belgian-style ales like saisons, goses, and Bières de Garde.

Farmhouse™ Description from the Manufacturer
"LalBrew Farmhouse™ is a non-diastatic hybrid that has been selected to make saison-style and farmhouse style beers. LalBrew Farmhouse™ was selected using the most advanced breeding techniques. The research team used classical and non-GMO methods to remove the STA1 gene, responsible for the diastatic activity of Saison yeasts. Care was taken to retain normal brewing sugar utilization to produce dry saisons. Additionally, the patented technology from the University of California Davis (USA) ensures that the strain will not produce hydrogen sulfide (H2S) off-flavors, therefore enhancing the saison yeast aroma characteristics."
