Brettanomyces was typically included in 1800's English Stock Ales and Pale Ales (~56 and 59 mins in). Brettanomyces, along with dry hop creep, was identified as the source of secondary fermentation during long aged ales, contributing to their lasting high carbonation.
At the time of discovery, Claussen was aiming to recreate the flavor profile of traditional English ales by fermenting them with pure cultures of Saccharomyces, and either pitching pure cultures of his newly discovered Brettanomyces yeast along with Saccharomyces, or as he preferred, after the primary fermentation of Saccharomyces. Although first isolated in 1889 and again in 1899 by scientists at Guinness, the discovery of Brettanomyces was first publicly published by the Director of laboratory of the New Carlsberg Brewery, Hjelte Claussen, in 1904 after he cultured it in 1903 from English beers that exhibited a sluggish secondary fermentation. Both genera evolved independently to ferment sugar and produce ethanol. Introduction of History, Characteristics, and TaxonomyĬlosely related to Saccharomyces, Brettanomyces diverged from its cousin yeast more than 200 million years ago. 5.2.5 Example of a Home Lab Orbital Shaker.5.2.3 MYPG Growth Substrate and Other Laboratory Substrates.5.1 Primary versus Secondary Fermentation.2.1.1 Glycosides and Beta-Glucosidase Activity.2.1 Carbohydrate Metabolism and Fermentation Temperature.1 Introduction of History, Characteristics, and Taxonomy.See Lactobacillus, Pediococcus, Saccharomyces, Mixed Cultures, Kveik, and Nonconventional Yeasts and Bacteria charts for other commercially available cultures. Brettanomyces can also form a pellicle during fermentation. However, Brettanomyces also produces high levels of fruity esters that are desirable in some styles like saison, lambic, and American sour beers. Known for its barnyard, fecal, horsey, metallic or Band-Aid flavors, Brettanomyces continues to be unwelcome in many breweries and most wineries. The genus name Dekkera is used interchangeably with Brettanomyces, as it describes the teleomorph or spore-forming form of the yeast, although this form is extremely rare or perhaps even non-existent. More recently Brettanomyces has gained popularity in the United States (and subsequently the brewing industries of other countries) as a yeast that can contribute desirable and novel characteristics to beer and other alcoholic beverages. pastorianus in the brewing and wine industries starting in the late 1800's, Brettanomyces has been mostly viewed as a spoilage yeast, except in Belgian lambic, Flanders red/brown beers, and a handful of styles of wine. Since the wide adoption of pure cultures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and S. Linda Bisson and Lucy Joseph at UC Davisīrettanomyces, also referred to by brewers as "Brett" or "Bretta", is Greek for "British Fungus" and is a yeast that was originally thought of as an important yeast for producing the character of some 17th century and prior English ales.
