Banana Split is an expressive Hefeweizen-style wheat yeast designed to deliver the unmistakable banana-forward character found in classic German wheat beers. Derived from the renowned Weihenstephan lineage, this strain has been selected for flavour intensity without the risks associated with diastatic yeasts.

Each sachet contains 11 grams, suitable for fermenting approximately 22 litres of wort. Banana Split produces high levels of isoamyl acetate, the compound responsible for its signature banana aroma, balanced by subtle undertones of apple, clove, and plum. The result is a complex but highly drinkable wheat beer with classic fruity and spicy aromatics.

Fermentation temperature plays a key role in flavour expression by raising temperatures will push banana esters further forward, while cooler fermentations offer a more restrained, balanced profile. Despite its expressive nature, Banana Split remains easy to work with and poses no diastatic risk to brewhouse operations.

Oxygenation and/or rehydration for the first generation may be beneficial but is not strictly required.
