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.

Rest at 140 F for about 15 minutes. Mash at 153F for 60 Minutes. Nottingham Ale Yeast Yields more nutty flavor, London ale yeast produces a good coffee flavor. Vanilla hints were ever so slight.

A bit more coffee flavor than Black Butte, with the Platinum series Nottingham (SP?) yeast providing a more nutty, mellow flavor.
