added TYB Transatlantic Berliner Blend
|-
| Saison/Brettanomyces Blend II || 82-85 || Medium-Low || 72-80 || The cultures in this new and unique blend include two saison-style Saccharomyces cerevisiae isolates (Wallonian Farmhouse II and Wallonian Farmhouse III) and two Brettanomyces bruxellensis cultures (TYB184, TYB207). This blend will produce a beer that is bursting with classic saison character with a rustic kick of Brettanomyces fruitiness and funkiness. While exhibiting a mild hay/barnyard component, the overall character is heavier on the fruit-forward end of the spectrum compared to our original Saison/Brettanomyces Blend. The Brettanomyces portion of the culture tends to generate character rather quickly owing to the nature of the strains used.

| Transatlantic Berliner Blend || 85+ || Med-Low || 66-75 || Transatlantic Berliner Blend is culture a long time in the making that marries Saccharomyces, Lactobacillus and Brettanomyces from two continents. Separated by the Atlantic Ocean, man-made borders and thousands of miles, our isolation efforts have brought these strains together! Transatlantic Berliner Blend is a blend of a clean ale strain (Germany), a healthy dose of both our Lactobacillus plantarum (US) and Lactobacillus brevis – Strain TYB282 (Mexico) isolates, and a touch of our Beersel Brettanomyces Blend (Belgium) and Brettanomyces bruxellensis Single Strain Isolate TYB184 (US). This culture will ferment to a crisp dryness over time and produce the trademark Berliner Weisse lactic acid backbone, with a touch of Brettanomyces tart citrus character and funk. Cell count: ~15 billion cells/vial.

| TYP House Sour Blend || 85+ || Med-Low || 68-78 || The Yeast Bay House Sour Blend is complex blend developed over three years of isolation work, currently consisting of the following organisms: 3 Belgian/Saison ''Saccharomyces cerevisiae'' isolates, 16 ''Brettanomyces'' sp. isolates, ''Saccharomyces fermentati'', ''Lactobacillus brevis'', ''Lactobacillus delbreuckii'', ''Lactobacillus plantarum'', ''Lactobacillus'' sp. ("uncultured Lactobacillus" sequencing result), ''Pediococcus damnosus''. This culture will produce a dry, acidic, complex beer over time with a complementary profile of lactic acid, pineapple/orange/lemon/floral esters and earthy funk. The ''Lactobacillus'' and ''Pediococcus'' have been maintained in the presence of moderate IBU (~5-10) with the hope that a slightly more hop-tolerant population will persist. However, as with the Mélange Sour Blend, if you want acidity quickly, we recommend keeping the IBU low (0-5 IBU), starting with a fermentation temperature of 70-72°F for the first few days and then raising the temperature to 75-80 ºF 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.
