| Grand Cru (OYL-023) || || 72-76 || Low || 63-76 || Widely used strain in the production of Witbier, Grand Cru, sweet mead and cider. Produces spicy phenolics which are balanced nicely by a complex ester profile. The subtle fruit character and dry tart finish will complement wheat malt, orange peel and spice additions typical of Wits. Compares to WLP720 and WY3463. Commercial pitches only.

| Saisonstein's Monster (OYL-500) || || 80-90 || Low || 65-78 || The first in our line of hybrid strains. This strain is a genetic hybrid resulting from the mating of strains OYL-026 and OYL-027, created by and available exclusively from Omega Yeast. Less phenolic and more fruit character than 026. Exhibits some of the bubble gum character of 027. Omega Yeast Labs Exclusive. This is a hybrid of ''S. boulardii'' and ''S. cerevisiae'' var ''diastaticus'' <ref>[https://www.facebook.com/groups/MilkTheFunk/permalink/1378499435511600/?comment_id=1824967080864831&reply_comment_id=1825262140835325&comment_tracking=%7B%22tn%22%3A%22R0%22%7D Lance Shaner.

| Wit (OYL-030) || || 72-76 || Medium || 62-75 || Produces a complex flavor profile dominated by spicy phenolics with low to moderate ester production. It is a great strain choice when you want a delicate clove profile not to be overshadowed by esters. It will ferment fairly dry with a slightly tart finish that compliments the use of oats, malted and unmalted wheat. This strain is a true top cropping yeast requiring full fermenter headspace of 33%. Compares to WLP400 and WY3944 vs Omega Yeast Labs Exclusive. Commercial pitches only.
