Voss Kveik Lightning Fast Ale Dry Yeast (11g / 22L) | WHC Labs

Voss Kveik is a powerful Norwegian farmhouse ale yeast known for its lightning-fast fermentation and exceptional ability to perform at very high temperatures. Originating from the Voss region of Norway, this strain has become a favourite among homebrewers and craft brewers for its speed, flexibility, and distinctive flavour profile.

Each sachet contains 11 grams, suitable for fermenting approximately 22 litres of wort. Voss Kveik can be fermented at temperatures as high as 40°C, dramatically reducing the need for chilling and temperature control while shortening overall fermentation and conditioning times.

At higher temperatures, Voss Kveik produces bold orange and citrus esters, ideal for expressive IPAs and farmhouse-style ales. When fermented cooler, it delivers a much cleaner profile, making it surprisingly versatile across a wide range of beer styles. Its high alcohol tolerance and rapid fermentation also make it well suited to high-gravity beers.

Oxygenation and/or rehydration for the first generation can be beneficial but is not strictly required, adding to its ease of use.
