  • White Labs WLP013 London Ale

    White Labs WLP013 London Ale

    Dry, malty ale yeast. Provides a complex, oakey ester character to your beer. Hop bitterness comes through well. This yeast is well suited for classic British pale ales, bitters, and stouts. Does not flocculate as much as WLP002 and WLP005.

Notes

A 'use-em-up' recipe, hence the strange grain bill. But it turned out mighty nice. Used a 'Toohey's Real Ale' kit as base. POR hops includes an assumption that the kit is bittered at about 25 IBU. (But who knows.) The Willamette gives it a Fugglesiness, with an extra spicy note.
