Lallemand Brewing has launched LalBrew Aurora, a Saccharomyces cerevisiae targeted at various IPA styles, particularly the new Northern IPA style. 

The first yeast introduced in this series, LalBrew Aurora was carefully selected from Lallemand’s extensive yeast culture collection for robust fermentation performance and unique aroma expression.

With inspiration from the northern lights, LalBrew Aurora ferments well at lower temperatures to produce floral and fruity aroma that is exceptionally crisp and clean, the company said.

They added in a statement: “LalBrew Aurora brings IPA in new directions by defining the Northern IPA style, which combines the clean drinkability of traditional West Coast IPAs with the modern yeast character of East Coast styles.”
