Portfolio
The craft revolution in the brewing industry has created the demand for more tailored yeast and fermentation solutions. Under the Pinnacle brand we have created a new portfolio of yeasts and yeast-based fermentation improvers specifically for craft brewers.
Our fermentation and yeast technology experts have combined with world-leading brewing institutes to build a new portfolio of yeast solutions for craft brewers. We have investigated and selected, from our own bank of over 2000 yeast strains, those that are more suited to providing craft brewers with more attractive flavour and yield solutions. To assist you in identifying which yeast strain is most suitable for your desired application, please click through our product portfolio below for more information:
