'''Kveik''' is a dialect word for "yeast" in Norwegian ("gjær" is the common word for "yeast" in Norwegian <ref>[http://en.bab.la/dictionary/norwegian-english/gjaer Bab.la Dictionary. Retrieved 01/21/2016.]</ref>), and today specifically refers to non-purified yeast that contains multiple domesticated (not wild) strains of ''S. cerevisiae'' and has been reused for generations in traditional Norwegian farmhouse brewing. The Originally the word is also was used as a verb to mean "to start" or to "begin life" <ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MCC3tBS2j_Q Ivar Geithung. Chop And Brew Youtube video. 09/21/2019.

Farmhouse yeasts from other countries such as Lithuania and Russia have been found to be both genetically different and express different fermentation profiles than the kveik yeasts of Norway, and are therefore not referred to as "kveik". See the [[Landrace_Yeast|Farmhouse Yeasts in Other Countries]] pageand [https://www.garshol.priv.no/blog/420.html "Farmhouse yeast: what do we know?"] by Lars Marius Garshol.

Kveik was passed down from generation to generation within the family, and also shared among fellow brewers in the region. In this way, kveik evolved differently than the two major beer yeast genetic groups that are used in industrialized brewing. While mostly POF-, a trait that is selected for in many beer yeast strains that prevents the yeast from producing 4-vinylguaiacol phenol, other traits are reflective of how this yeast was used by traditional farmhouse brewers of the region. For example, as far back as 1621 (and probably prior), kveik was often stored dry on wooden logs called "kveikstokker" for up to a year or longerbefore being re-used in a new batch of beer (the process of re-using yeast from batch to batch is known as "backslopping" in brewing<ref>[https://mmbr.asm.org/content/77/2/157 The Microbiology of Malting and Brewing. Nicholas A. Bokulich, Charles W. Bamforth. 2013. DOI: 10.1128/MMBR.00060-12.]</ref>). Kveik was typically inoculated directly into the wort by submerging the kveikstokker into the wort at 30-40°C. The wort was often high gravity of around 1.080 SG, and the beer was served just after 1-2 3 days of fermentation beginning at this hot inoculation temperature(this was also the case for most farmhouse brewers throughout Europe even though kveik was limited to Norway, indicating that most landrace/farmhouse yeast was fermented this way) <ref>[https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/03610470.2021.1945377?journalCode=ujbc20 Lars Marius Garshol (2021) Fermentation Times in Traditional Farmhouse Brewing, Journal of the American Society of Brewing Chemists, DOI: 10.1080/03610470.2021.1945377.]</ref>. The kveik was then taken from the fermenter and dried until its next use. If the kveik went sour or died, brewers would borrow kveik from their neighbors, which was another way of preserving kveik through the centuries. Kveik was sometimes also used to ferment bread. It has been proposed by Preiss et al. (2018) that this treatment has produced yeast strains that are genetically distinct phenotypically from other domesticated yeast strains used in industrial brewing in Europe <ref name="Tyrawa_2017">[https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fmicb.2018.02137/full Traditional Norwegian Kveik Are a Genetically Distinct Group of Domesticated Saccharomyces cerevisiae Brewing Yeasts.

Thanks to efforts by Lars Marius Garshol and Håken Hveem, and Norwegian farmhouse brewers Svein Rivenes, Sigmund Gjernes, Bjarne Muri, Terje Raftevold, and others, kveik has been made commercially available to brewers around the world. Much of the analysis has been performed by the [http://www.ncyc.co.uk National Collection of Yeast Cultures (NCYC)] and [[Escarpment Laboratories]].

This gives credit to the brewers who have donated their family heritage to the brewers of the world, and it is also helpful for those who want to know exactly which yeast was used in the beer.

In general, most of the cultures of kveik that have been analyzed contain more than one strain of ''S. cerevisiae''. The exact number of strains that is present in a given kveik culture is difficult to analyze; generally labs with better equipment and more time can identify more strains than others. Some kveik cultures contain multiple strains of closely related strains of ''S. cerevisiae'', while others contain a more diverse group of strains <ref name="garshol_preiss_mbaa" />. The kveik cultures with closely related strains defy what a "strain" isolate is; Richard Preiss describes these kveik cultures as being "heterogenous but related communities", meaning that there can be a lot of genetic overlap between subpopulations in a kveik culture and where one strain begins and another ends is not possible to define <ref name="preiss_strains" />. Strains within cultures probably arose due to mutations during cell division, as well as sporulation which kveik is more capable of than other domesticated yeast strains <ref>[https://www.facebook.com/groups/MilkTheFunk/posts/6929359520425536/?comment_id=6929468623747959&reply_comment_id=6933491356679019 Richard Preisse. Milk The Funk Facebook group thread about landrace yeast and sporulation. 05/16/2023.]</ref>. ''S. cerevisiae'' was the only species in all of the kveik cultures analyzed by Preiss et al. (2018), except for the Muri kveik. The Muri kveik contains a single isolate of what appears to be a domestic (human produced) hybrid between ''S. cerevisiae'', ''S. eubayanus'', and ''S. uvarum''. Of the 9 kveik cultures analyzed by Preiss et al. (2018), only Muri(which has since been found to be commercially available Bavarian Weizen yeast and not a landrace farmhouse yeast at all; see [[Landrace Yeast]]), Simonaitis, and Stranda contained only one strain of ''S. cerevisiae'', while all of the others contained more than one strain of ''S. cerevisiae'' up to 9 strains in the case of Granvin (see [https://www.frontiersin.org/files/Articles/409253/fmicb-09-02137-HTML-r1/image_m/fmicb-09-02137-t001.jpg this table from the paper]). A Master's Thesis by [https://nmbu.brage.unit.no/nmbu-xmlui/handle/11250/2681970?show=full Nadia Marlen Aasen from Norwegian University of Life Sciences] isolated 4-10 strains from 4 different kveik cultures: Ørjasæter, Otterdal, Gausemel and Gamlegrua. As with Preiss (2018), the only species of yeast found was ''S. cerevisiae''. While only yeast was found in Otterdal and Ørjasæter, the Gausemel also had two bacteria species, ''Acetobacter malorum'' and ''Lactobacillus plantarum'', and the Gamlegrua also had ''L. plantarum'' <ref name="Aasen">[https://nmbu.brage.unit.no/nmbu-xmlui/handle/11250/2681970?show=full Nadia Marlen Aasen.

The closest related domesticated strains were 3 German hefeweizen strains; however, this relation is likely just due to both groups being hybrids rather than having any historic relation <ref name="Tyrawa_2017" />. None of the kveik strains sequenced by Preiss et al. (2018) contained the STA1 gene for diastaticusdiastatic activity, which is expected since all of the diastaticus diastatic yeasts belong to the "Beer 2" group <ref>[https://www.facebook.com/groups/MilkTheFunk/permalink/2445690998792433/?comment_id=2446266075401592&reply_comment_id=2446269382067928&comment_tracking=%7B%22tn%22%3A%22R5%22%7D Richard Preiss. Milk The Funk Facebook thread on kveik and the STA1 gene. 01/03/2018.]</ref>.

Although whole genome sequencing of more kveik strains is needed in order to fully flesh out a family tree of kveik <ref>[https://www.facebook.com/groups/MilkTheFunk/permalink/2277955402232661/?comment_id=2279696338725234&reply_comment_id=2279736462054555&comment_tracking=%7B%22tn%22%3A%22R%2321%22%7D Richard Preiss. Milk The Funk Facebook group comment about the two families of kveik yeast. 09/13/2018.]</ref>, based on the 6 strains that were analyzed, kveik strains seem to be divided into two related genetic groups, with the Muri, the Simonatis Lithuanian strain, and a Norwegian bread yeast falling outside of these two groups completely, which arguably categorizes them to not actually be considered "kveik". The two groups of kveik probably originated from two ancestors that were hybrids between a "Beer 1" yeast and wild yeast. Interestingly, the kveik cultures that have multiple strains have strains from both genetic groups of kveik. For example, Hornindal, Granvin, Laerdal, and Stordal Ebbergarden all contained strains from both genetic groups of kveik. Overall, their genetic diversity is wider than the genetic diversity of other "Beer 1" subgroups <ref name="Tyrawa_2017" />. See this [https://www.frontiersin.org/files/Articles/409253/fmicb-09-02137-HTML-r1/image_m/fmicb-09-02137-g002.jpg updated family diagram of yeast].

Preiss et al. (2018) also measured the fermentation characteristics of individual kveik strains in their study, the first published data in this regard for kveik. At 86°F (30°C) they found that 11 of the 24 pure strains of kveik outperformed the best control strain (WLP002) in fermentation rate. There was still a very wide range of attenuation rates between the kveik strains (60-90%). Of the 6 strains that had their DNA sequenced, all but one of the Granvin strains fermented maltotriose. All of the strains tested were POF- (meaning they did not produce significant 4-vinylguaiacol phenol) except the Muri strain which is not genetically related to kveik. One of these Stordal Ebbegarden strains also contained a unique mutation on the ''FDC1'' gene that results in the inability to produce phenols and has not been reported before in science. They also found that kveik strains tend to produce fatty acid esters at levels that are typical for other domesticated yeast strains, such as ethyl caproate (pineapple, tropical; threshold 0.21 ppm), ethyl caprylate (tropical, apple, cognac; threshold 0.9 ppm), and ethyl decanoate (apple; threshold 0.2 ppm). The kveik strains studied did not produce high levels of the isoamyl acetate ester (banana) and generally lower levels of the fusel alcohol isobutanol compared WLP001 and WLP002. Strangely, 5 of the 6 strains that were analyzed could form spores, which is not typical for brewers yeast <ref name="Tyrawa_2017" />.

The general flavor profile of kveik yeast is ester-driven and non-phenolic, although a wide range of subtle differences can exist between strains. Kveik in its traditional form is usually a blend of closely related strains. The "Stranda" kveik was described as "lemon, nuts, grain, and straw" by Lars Marius Garshol. The "Hornindal kveik" with bacteria was described as "fruity, milky caramel, honey, and mushroom with a very unique aroma". The "Muri kveik" was described as "earthy on the nose, and fruity tasting with hints of rubber and sulfur and a thinner mouthfeel than the others" <ref name="kveik_testingTyrawa_2017"></ref>.

This is a summary of commercially available kveik cultures. See the above descriptions, the [http://www.garshol.priv.no/download/farmhouse/kveik.html kveik registryFarmhouse Yeast Registry], and the vendor's website for more information about the cultures. Most are single strain isolates, while some contain multiple strains or the native "unpurified" mixed cultures (this is of interest to some brewers, especially Norwegian brewers, because single isolates potentially perform differently than original cultures with multiple strains and as such will be denoted in the Notes column). Note that strain information can be misleading because the nature of kveik cultures make talking about individual strains difficult due to the strains being closely related yet diverse. Richard Preiss describes kveik cultures as being "heterogenous but related communities", meaning that there can be a lot of genetic overlap between subpopulations in a kveik culture and where one strain begins and another ends has yet to be defined (see [[Kveik#Recent_Yeast_Lab_Analysis_and_Commercial_Availability|Recent Lab Analysis]] above) <ref name="preiss_strains" />. Additionally, it is legal and quite common for yeast labs to culture strains from another yeast lab and brand them as their own, thus many single isolates are likely to be duplicates of whichever lab initially isolated them (this is unverifiable unless the yeast lab in question shares how they obtained their isolate or independent DNA sequencing is done; we include such information when it is available to us). Commercially available non-kveik landrace farmhouse yeast are listed on the [[Landrace Yeast]] page.

Little is known about this kveik, but it is described in Rasmussen's thesis. ===The Lida kveik=== From Samuel Lien in Grodås, Hornindal. Collected by William Holden. Samuel got the kveik from Hans Øen, who moved from Hornindal from Faleide in Stryn, so the yeast is originally from Stryn. Øen is dead, but Lien is alive. Pitch temperature 30. ===Lars Andreas Tomasgard, Hornindal=== Lars Marius Garshol collected this from Lars Andreas at the Kornøl Festival. More information needed. ===Dagfinn Wendelbo's Lærdal kveik=== Arvid Solheim collected this kveik from Dagfinn Wendelbo at Ljøsne in Lærdal. Wendelbo lost his own kveik a couple of years ago, and got this from Per Gjermann. As far as I understand it originates with Gjermann, from the farm Stødno in Lærdal. ===Hans Haugse's Granvin kveik=== Originates from Hans Haugse from Granvin, Hardanger, via Einar Vestrheim and Lars Olav Muren. NCYC analysis indicates that it contains both Pichia and Saccharomyces. ===Sigurd Johan Saure's Sykkylven kveik=== Originates with brewer Sigurd Johan Saure, at Tormodgarden in Aurdal in Sykkylven. Sigurd says the yeast has definitely been reused since his great-greatmaintaining-grandfather's time. His great-grandfather mixed it with another yeast from a friend in the 1950s, after the yeast "got weak". Collected, but not sent Practical Guide to the NCYC yet.Kveik and Other Farmhouse Yeast: Reusing and Maintaining Yeast]

===Framgarden, Stordal=== From Petter B Øvrebust at a neighbouring farm in Stordal. Collected by William Holden. Petter still brews raw ale, pitches at 30C, ferments 2-3 days. ===Midtbust, Stordal=== From Odd H Midtbust at a third farm in Stordal, collected by Lars Marius Garshol. Jens Aage Øvrebust says this yeast is pitched at 33C, and that it should be kept at this temperature during fermentation. Usually ferments about 3 days. Midtbust harvests the yeast from the top. ===Jarle Nupen, Eidsdal=== Jarle brought this kveik to the Kornøl Festival, where he gave it to Lars Marius Garshol. Jarle originally got the yeast from Tore Hjelle in Eidsdal in 1979-1980, so the yeast comes from Eidsdal. Jarle has kept the yeast ever since, and he says "I've watched it like gold." Jarle pitches at 31 degrees, and doesn't want the fermentation to go above 36 degrees. He ferments roughly 30 hours. ===Jakob Torp Årset, Geiranger=== Jakob brought this kveik to the Kornøl Festival, where he gave it to Lars Marius Garshol. More information needed. ===Eitrheim-kveiken, Hardanger=== Jakob Eitrheim, born 1920, has been using this kveik in Bleie since the 1950s. He says he got it from his grandfather, who lived at Eitrheim (now part of the town of Odda), but he doesn't know where it came from before that. So he claims to know the history of the yeast back to the late 19th century. Jacob ran out of yeast in the late 1950s, and got new yeast from his brother, who had the same kveik. The yeast is pitched at 37C, and harvested from the bottom. The Eitrheim family dry it and keep it in glasses. They usually ferment 3-4 days. ===Wollsæter=== Jørgen Wollsæter's kveik culture. ==Relevant Larsblog Posts and MTF ContentFarmhouse Brewing Resources==
