Wyeast 1388 Belgian Strong Ale™
Wyeast 1388 Belgian Strong Ale™
Robust flavor yeast with moderate to high alcohol tolerance. Fruity nose and palate, dry, tart finish.
Notes
Used Kallas Buckwheat blossom honey, thus the name. This makes it much darker than calculated. After 1 week in primary and about 10 in secondary it's only fermented down to 1.040. If I try this one again, I'll gradually add the honey during fermentation, instead of adding to the boil. I think it could also have been aerated better and/or pitched onto a yeast cake from a previous batch. Oh well... Tastes rather sweet any winey.

I kept waiting for this to improve with age. After about 2-1/2 years, I dumped the last bottles. I think the fermentation might have been too hot.
