INIS-001

Northern California Ale Yeast

Commonly referred to as “Chico,” this is one of the most popular strains in the brewing industry due to its clean profile and ease of repitch. Originally isolated from a premier American craft brewer out of Chico, California, it ferments out to a crisp beer with low fruitiness and mild esters.
