Case study: Read more to know how an international brewer leveraged tailor-made mashing recipe from Novonesis to develop a highly attenuated beer.  

A medium-sized craft brewery aimed to introduce a flavorful non-alcoholic IPA within a short time. Read the case study to find out more.

With Novonesis’ frozen liquid yeasts (SmartBev™ FLY), you can ensure the same inoculation rate of the propagator every time. This results in a more consistent overall propagation and generation-zero fermentation.  

A regional brewery found their process of microbial acidification for producing kettle sours was too slow. It was tying up the brew-kettle for several days, creating a bottleneck in the brewhouse. 

A range of standard and customized Novonesis solutions, including Shearzyme® 500 L (filtration), Neutrase® 0.8 L BrewQ and Termamyl® SC 4X, helped the brewer optimize its filtration process and cope with fluctuations in raw material quality.

With Novonesis’ SmartBev™ frozen liquid yeasts (FLY), the breweries could inoculate their propagation tanks directly from FLY frozen products that were kept on-site in a freezer.

This is the story of how innovative ways of brewing beer with enzymes and local crops are creating a new kind of future for farmers in Africa. Meet Janet Karee Matura, a Kenyan farmer who sells her sorghum to breweries, which has let her to build a new home.

Without yeast, there’s no beer – making yeast management critical for brewing consistent, high-quality beer. Since the late 19th century, the industry has adopted and used a certain method for propagating yeast from slants in their breweries.

By dramatically changing its recipe, an international brewer wanted to meet many challenges at once.
