Omega Yeast is a Chicago-based company in the food and beverage services sector that develops and supplies yeast strains and fermentation products for brewers. The firm supports brewing operations and product development, and its portfolio has grown since launching its first yeast, Cosmic Punch, in 2021 to about 80 distinct offerings. It operates as a small-to-mid-sized business focused on serving the brewing community. Its customers are brewers seeking diverse fermentation cultures and innovations to advance beer styles and production processes. In 2024, Omega Yeast was acquired by AB Mauri North America, representing a major corporate development. The company also engages in collaborative research and product development, including work on hazy beer genetics and sustainability, and offers dried formats such as Lutra Kveik to broaden its fermentation options.
