Maris Otter Pale
Maris Otter Pale
An English thoroughbred and a favored choice of malt for many brewers. Simpsons' Maris Otter has a rich and nutty flavor and despite its small, berry size has a strong husk.

White Labs WLP028 Edinburgh Scottish Ale
White Labs WLP028 Edinburgh Scottish Ale
Scotland is famous for its malty, strong ales. This yeast can reproduce complex, flavorful Scottish style ales. This yeast can be an everyday strain, similar to WLP001. Hop character is not muted with this strain, as it is with WLP002.
Notes
First runnings from a parti-gyle session. Will mash cool for increased fermentability. Will ferment cool on yeast cake from a Scottish Light.
