Brewer notes

Wit is a liquid wheat culture from Omega (OYL-030). Fermentation character can show phenolic, spicy, clove, and estery notes. Choose it when its fermentation profile fits the intended beer rather than substituting by attenuation alone. Reference guidance: attenuation guidance 72–76%, fermentation range about 17–24°C (62–75°F), alcohol tolerance around 10%. Treat temperature, attenuation and alcohol tolerance as strain guidance; wort composition, pitch health and fermentation management still affect the result.
