What Are FRESH™ Strains?

FRESH™ strains make cleaner tasting beer that judges and beer drinkers prefer. Until now, brewers have relied on imperfect methods for reducing total diacetyl, a distracting off-flavor that can impact quality at even very low levels. Our FRESH™ strains are engineered to produce the ALDC enzyme inside the cell, a reliable method that’s robust to process variation. Diacetyl rests are shortened, beer is packaged sooner, fewer forced tests are required, and above all, your customers will enjoy a beer that’s so fresh and so clean.
