What Are GALACTIC™ Strains?
Achieve the perfect level of acidity with no off-flavors. Galactic strains produce lactic acid during fermentation, which enables quick-souring in the fermentor without a kettle-pasteurization step. Galactic strains save you time and money by making sour beer production as cost effective as making normal beer.
