Imperial Yeast: I22 Capri

Capri is a small-celled warrior fit to bring out the best of your IPAs!

Introducing Capri, an experimental Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain created by Imperial Yeast by directing brewing yeast through their idle sexual cycle via fungal sporulation, designed to explore the natural bio-diversity normally off limits to brewing yeast.

Capris juicy ester aromatics, tropical flavors, and bright citrus notes emphasize the desirable qualities from the two popular parent strains: A38 Juice & A43 Loki.

The Juicy ester aromatics of A38 Juice fuse with the tropical flavors and bright citrus notes of A43 Loki creating a delightfully pleasant drinking experience. 

Capri is prone to stay in suspension when in large tank vessels, volatilize sulfur early, form a tight yeast cone harvest. Try dry hopping additions with this strain for a more active fermentation.
