Los Angeles

American

Made to Order Allow 1-2 weeks

Los Angeles is a clean American ale strain with slightly more character than pure neutral strains, offering a hint of fruitiness that adds complexity to pale ales and IPAs. High flocculation produces clear beers quickly, and moderate attenuation (72-76%) leaves a medium body with some malt presence. It bridges the gap between fully neutral American strains and more expressive English yeasts, making it a versatile choice for breweries producing both American and English-influenced styles.
