Pinnacle Hefeweizen gist 500 g

Pinnacle™ high quality Active Dry Brewing Yeast is comparable in its performance to liquid yeast. Furthermore, it is a practical, consistent and cost-effective option. Pinnacle™ Hefeweizen is a classic pick for brewing traditional German-style wheat beers. This vigorous top-cropping strain imparts distinctive banana and pear aromas, complemented by a well-balanced clove note. For driving even more banana and pear, use lower pitch rates and slightly warmer fermentation temperatures.
