Imperial Yeast's B64 Napoleon is the classic strain used. to produce French Saison where a balance of fruit esters and spicy phenols are necessary. Since this yeast strain is an insane wort attenuator it will destroy the sugars in your beers (even the ones in which most brewer's strains have no interest), it will produce a very dry, crisp beer with nice citrus aromas balanced by subtle black pepper phenols. The yeast settling times can be long and it will typically require filtration for bright beers.

It's a fabulous choice for Belgian Saisons and Farmhouse Ales.

If you need a substitution we suggest using White Labs French Saison Ale WLP590, or Omega French Saison OYL026

Species: Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. diastaticus

Flocculation: Low

Attenuation: 77-83%

Optimal Fermentation Temperature: 65 - 78F

Due to its versatility it is a great choice for the following styles:

  • Saison

Note: This strain tests positive for the STA1 gene via PCR analysis and is therefore considered to be Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. diastaticus
