LalBrew Abbaye™
LalBrew Abbaye™ is an ale yeast of Belgian origin. Selected for its ability to ferment Belgian style beers ranging from low to high alcohol, LalBrew Abbaye™ produces the spiciness and fruitiness typical of Belgian and Trappist style ales. When fermented at higher temperatures, typical flavors and aromas include tropical, spicy and banana. At lower temperatures, LalBrew Abbaye™ produces darker fruit aromas and flavors of raisin, date, and fig. Traditional styles brewed with this yeast include but are not limited to Belgian White, Belgian Blonde, Belgian Golden, Dubbel, Tripel, and Quad.

Testimonials
We reverted to LalBrew Abbaye ™ as our house yeast after trying various alternatives. It gives us better predictability with more constant attenuation, all while keeping the correct flavor profile.
It took us several years to find a dry yeast for our Belgian style beers. With Lallemand Abbaye ™, we finally have a reliable solution to produce esters and give our beers that typical profile we were looking for.
