Wyeast 1882-PC Thames Valley Ale II
Wyeast 1882-PC Thames Valley Ale II
This strain was originally sourced from a now defunct brewery on the banks of the river Thames outside of Oxford, England. Thames Valley II produces crisp, dry beers with a rich malt profile and moderate stone fruit esters. This attenuative strain is also highly flocculent resulting in bright beers not requiring filtration. A thorough diacetyl rest is recommended after fermentation is complete.
Notes
St. Nicholas was Bishop of Myra, in modern-day Turkey. As you may have guessed, a project for Christmas presents.
