Dear fellow brewers,

It is with a heavy heart that we announce the closure of BrewChatter after 10 wonderful years of serving our fellow brewers and community. Due to various unforeseen circumstances, we have made the difficult decision to shut down operations ending March 31st.

We want to express our deepest gratitude for your support, loyalty, and friendship throughout the years. We would not have been able to achieve such success without you, and we are truly grateful for the opportunities you have given us.

During the next couple weeks, we will be wrapping up any outstanding projects, having a massive liquidation sale and fulfilling any pending orders. We will do everything we can to minimize any inconvenience caused. Thank you again for your understanding and support during this difficult time.

Sincerely, Josh & RJ

White Labs WLP885 Zurich Lager Yeast Vault Strain

A Swiss-style lager yeast that with proper care can be used to produce lagers over 11% ABV. Sulfur and diacetyl production is minimal.  Consider your favorite Christmas beer, Samichlaus, and you'll know what this strain adds to a high gravity brew.

Highlighted Product on R.J.'s Home Brew Corner April 2022 - See this month's featured products on the Homebrew Corner Picks!

For those of you (like me) that LOVE high gravity lagers, this strain is IT!  It’s only around once a year or so when White Labs spins it up, but it’s the perfect strain for both light and dark high gravity beers.  Attenuation is up to 80%, which is wonderful for a nice, dry lager, even at 10% or 12% ABV.  I like that even at monster ABV levels, it doesn’t produce heavy sulfur and diacetyl.  This strain paired with our Kaiser’s Reserve recipe is beautiful!
