Classic Norwegian Kveik with a big citrus character

Kveik Yeastery Voss K-20 is a genuine Norwegian multi-strain kveik originating from Sigmund Gjernes in Voss, Norway.

Voss is probably the name most brewers associate with traditional Norwegian kveik, and for good reason. It's a remarkably robust, fast-fermenting culture with a distinctive orange and citrus character that works brilliantly across a huge range of beers.

Multi-strain – closer to traditional kveik

One of the things that makes Kveik Yeastery different is that their cultures aren't simply single-strain yeasts.

Traditional Norwegian farmhouse kveik was often a community of several yeast strains, preserved and passed down through generations. Many modern commercial kveik products are based around a single isolated strain.

Kveik Yeastery Voss contains four strains, helping retain more of the character and complexity of the original farmhouse culture.

You're not just buying another generic kveik – you're getting a little piece of Norwegian brewing heritage in the sachet.

What does Voss taste like?

Voss is best known for its orange and citrus character, with notes of:

• Orange
• Tangerine
• Citrus

• Tropical fruit 

Ferment it warmer and the characteristic kveik fruitiness becomes more pronounced. Ferment it cooler for a cleaner, more restrained result.

A seriously versatile yeast

Voss isn't just for modern hop bombs.

It's equally at home in Pale Ale, IPA, farmhouse ale, blonde ale and wheat beer, and its ability to ferment quickly at warm temperatures makes it a particularly useful yeast to have in the brewing cupboard.

It's also a great choice if you're trying kveik for the first time and want to experience the classic Norwegian character that made the yeast famous among modern homebrewers.

From Voss, Norway to your fermenter

The Voss culture comes from Sigmund Gjernes in Voss, Norway, and is one of the most widely recognised traditional Norwegian farmhouse kveik cultures.

The Gjernes family preserved and reused their kveik for generations, part of the farmhouse brewing tradition that helped keep these remarkable cultures alive.
