Lactobacillus brevis is a highly acid-tolerant strain that produces significant lactic acid, lending beers a pronounced sour character. It performs best in low-hop beers (<10 IBU) to avoid slowed fermentation, ensuring vitality and consistent acid development. YF-999 is perfect for producing traditional sour ales, Berliner Weisse, and other tart styles where clean, intense lactic character is desired. Its reliability and acidity profile make it a staple for sour-focused brewers.
