Dark Mexican Decaf Coffee
White Labs WLP051 California Ale V

White Labs WLP051 California Ale V

From Northern California. This strain is more fruity than WLP001, and slightly more flocculant. Attenuation is lower, resulting in a fuller bodied beer than with WLP001.

Notes

Yeast was WLP051 as well as White Labs Burton Ale #WLP023; Wyeast Scottish Ale #1728 "Bader No-boil" routine (boiling hops with just the wort from the grain plus 1 c. of dme) raises IBU about 20% to maybe 33. Concentrated cold-dripped (Toddy-style) dark-roast Mexican decaf added to secondary (color will be slightly darker than indicated!)
