White Labs WLP041 Pacific Ale
White Labs WLP041 Pacific Ale
A popular ale yeast from the Pacific Northwest. The yeast will clear from the beer well, and leave a malty profile. More fruity than WLP002, English Ale Yeast. Good yeast for English style ales including milds, bitters, IPA, porters, and English style stouts.
Notes
The hop shortage caused me to use previously unfamiliar hops, rather than the preferred Cascade. We'll see.

I think you'll be pleased with the Amarillo Hops and will use them again as a preferred hop. I do.
