White Labs WLP060 American Ale Yeast Blend

White Labs WLP060 American Ale Yeast Blend

Our most popular yeast strain is WLP001, California Ale Yeast. This blend celebrates the strengths of California- clean, neutral fermentation, versatile usage, and adds two other strains that belong to the same 'clean/neutral' flavor category. The additional strains create complexity to the finished beer. This blend tastes more lager like than WLP001. Hop flavors and bitterness are accentuated, but not to the extreme of California. Slight sulfur will be produced during fermentation.

Turned out great

I am proud of this, it was a success. I would have like a little more hop flavor, but it has great Amarillo aroma. My friend drove across town to tell me how much he liked this. I like the mellow oakiness and I would probably just bump up the bittering hops a tad.
