BrewTek CL-200 Scottish Ale
BrewTek CL-200 Scottish Ale
Use for classic Scottish heavys, 90's- or strong ales. This yeast produces a soft, fruity malt profile with a subtle woody, oakey ester profile. A mild, mineral like dryness in the finish makes this a very complex strain.
Notes
Fermented with a Scottish Ale yeast or similarly low attenuation yeast.
