Rooted in the brewing heritage of Norwegian farmhouse ales, our Multi-Strain Kveik Yeasts are crafted blends of
authentic kveik cultures. Each strain contributes its distinct character, creating a harmonious profile of flavors and aromas.
The Voss kveik comes from Sigmund Gjernes in Voss, Norway. Voss is situated south of the Jostedal glacier. Voss was somewhat isolated from the larger cities, and most people were farming and self-sustained. People shared kveik mainly with each other, and because of the distance to other settlements, the kveik was rarely mixed with other types. The Voss kveik is unique in taste and aroma, much because of the great work done by Sigmund and others to preserve the yeast throughout the years.
Flavour profile of orange, tangerine and citrus, with light notes of tropical fruit and mild spicyness. Flavour intensity is medium at high fermentation temperatures, and decreases with lower fermentation temperatures.
Voss ferments well from 15 °C and up to 40 °C. At the optimum temperature (31 - 35 °C) expect fermentation to finish in 72 hours.
