I am currently in the process of starting up a brewpub and was wondering how professional brewers determine what yeast(s) will be their "house flavor." Do yeast labs like White Labs and Wyeast offer services where they help create a unique strain or create a new blend strains for you? Or is there some kind of method to start off with a common strain and "mutate" it until it creates the flavors and profile you want?
I would also like to get a sense if "house flavors" are mostly for larger breweries and most smaller guys just use common strains straight from the yeast labs.
