| Mélange || 85 || Med || 68-70 || two ''Saccharomyces cerevisiae '' isolates,''Saccharomyces fermentati'', five ''Brettanomyces '' isolates, ''Lactobacillus brevis'', ''Lactobacillus delbreuckii '' and ''Pediococcus damnosus''. If you want acidity quickly, we recommend keeping the IBU low (0-5 IBU), starting with a fermentation temperature of 70-72 ºF for the first few days and then raising the temperature to 75-80ºF to encourage development of sourness (''Lactobacillus'', ''Pediococcus''). For a slower developing beer that exhibits a rounded balance of funk (Brettanomyces) and sourness we recommend ~5-10 IBU, mashing on the high end, fermenting at 68 ºF and holding at that temperature for an extended period of time.

| Farmhouse Sour Ale || 80-90 || Med || 70-78 || Two Expect this blend to take 1-3 months to begin creating appreciable levels of acidity. This blend contains two farmhouse/saison ''Saccharomyces cerevisiae '' isolates, ''Lactobacillus brevis'', and ''Lactobacillus delbreuckii / ''. The two ''Saccharomyces'' strains will combine to create a delightful ester profile of grapefruit and orange zest, accompanied by a mild earthiness and spiciness. The two ''Lactobacillus'' strains will produce a balanced acid profile, given a suitable supply of accessible carbohydrates that remain after the bulk of fermentation has been completed by ''Saccharomyces''. Expect this blend to take 1-3 months to begin creating appreciable levels of acidity , depending primarily upon fermentation temperature and the IBU. Higher fermentation temperatures and lower (0-5) IBU will produce elevated levels of acidity. Lower fermentation temperatures and higher (10+) IBU will produce lower levels of acidity.

| Saison/Brettanomyces Blend || 80+ || Medium-Low || 70-78 || This blend combines one of the ''Saccharomyces '' strains from the Saison Blend and two unique ''Brettanomyces '' isolates from our yeast library. The ''Saccharomyces '' yeast strain is a strong attenuator that produces a delightful ester profile of grapefruit and orange zest and imparts a long, dry and earthy finish to the beer. The ''Brettanomyces '' strains are both good attenuators that produce some fruity esters and mild funk, and add a bright character to the beer. The combination of these yeast produces a dry but balanced character with a delightful ester profile and just the right amount of funk. The two Brett species are both ''bruxellensis'', each isolated from a different Belgian lambic beer <ref>[https://www.facebook.com/groups/MilkTheFunk/permalink/1286169764744568/?comment_id=1286181778076700&comment_tracking=%7B%22tn%22%3A%22R0%22%7D Conversation with Nick Impellitteri on TYB Saison/Brettanomyces Blend. 04/16/2016.]</ref>.
