* "Kveik" is not a beer style. Its translated meaning is "yeast". For more information, see Lars Marius Garshol's blog post [http://www.garshol.priv.no/blog/380.html "What Does 'Kveik' Mean?"].
* [https://www.facebook.com/groups/kveik/permalink/1857521244303344/ Thread in the Kveik Facebook group on why lab isolated strains are still considered "kveik".] It is useful to distinguish between purified single-strain kveik, purified multi-strain kveik, and unpurified original culture <ref>[https://www.facebook.com/groups/kveik/permalink/1857521244303344/ Lars Marius Garshol. Kveik facebook group thread on kveik terminology. 11/03/2018.]</ref>.
* Since the word 'kveik" refers only to Norwegian yeasts, and there are farmhouse yeasts in other countries, the term "landrace yeast" has been proposed to refer to all farmhouse-domesticated yeast. See also [[Landrace Yeast]].
