Our Story
White Labs Brewing Co.
Housed inside a yeast factory producing brewers yeast since 1995, White Labs Brewing Co. was started in 2012 as a way to showcase the influence yeast and fermentation have on beer.
Our brewery is used not only to make crowd favorite beers and styles, but for research and development to gain insight into new and innovative yeast strains along with industry classics.
"l love talking about the science of yeast and it's impact on flavor and aroma. Opening a brewery was a way we could showcase this impact." - Chris White, Founder of White Labs
THE SCIENCE BEHIND FERMENTATION
Fermentation impacts our every day lives. From the yogurt for breakfast to the bread with lunch and dinner, fermentation is responsible for some of our favorite food and beverages. Using microorganisms and fermentation techniques, we’re able to craft beers enjoyable to beer geeks and non-beer geeks alike.
Did you know, brewers yeast are responsible for over 500 flavor and aroma compounds?
