With teh the ability to ferment maltose, it showed some degree of attentuation attenuation in DME wort (more than many wild yeasts, but not as high as ''S. cerevisiae''), and is hop tolerant. It was tolerant of low amounts of alcohol up to 6% ABV. It performed better at 34-37°C than at 30°C, suggesting that it prefers warmer temperatures. The flavor profile in beer fermented with this species was characterized as tasting of pleasent pleasant esters and bubblegum <ref>[ Isolation of wild yeasts from Olympic National Park and Moniliella megachiliensis ONP131 physiological characterization for beer fermentation Renan Eugênio Araujo Piraine, David Gerald Nickens, David J.
