White Labs Inc. Pure Yeast and Fermentation team members have been active in the American and worldwide craft brewing movements since the 1980s. The company, which has grown to include offices in California and Colorado, provides a wealth of services to not only brewers but also winemakers, distillers and others in the fermentation business.
In the 1980’s Gert Strand introduced a fast-acting yeast that was perhaps the first Turbo in the world. By 1996, however, competitors had surpassed this product’s quality, and he began selling other manufacturers’ Turbos. Selling only high quality is the company policy. Now, in the year 2000, Gert Strand proudly introduces new, improved, fast-acting Turbo yeasts, in every price class.
