Saisons, Belgian Ales, Belgian Reds, Belgian Browns, and White beers are just a few of the classic Belgian beer styles that can be created with this yeast strain. Phenolic and spicy flavors dominate the profile, with less fruitiness then WLP500.

if you use the belgian ale, it seems like it should be fermented at pretty low temperatures as I don\'t remember the 1554 having any extreme yeasty esters

From the Brewery's website: The beer is fermented at relatively high temperatures using a European lager yeast that imparts a refreshing, zesty acidity. http://www.newbelgium.com/beers_bk.php
Is there an update to this?

I am looking for a 1554 extract recipe. This one can obviously be converted, but the OG and TG numbers look to be a bit off from the NB website specs for the 1554. They show OG at 15.3 Plato and TG ag 4.5 Plato, leaving a slightly denser brew than this recipe would indicate. Any thoughts?

Kviek Voss. At a higher temperature it'd remain fairly neutral but still give some interesting esters. (about 85-90 F) It would also speed up fermentation and maturation.
