Used commercially for several classic American ales. This strain ferments dry, finishes soft, smooth and dean, and is very well balanced.
Notes
Gambrinus Pale was used as the base malt. Also, the hops were a home-grown mixed bag of the 3 varieties, so I averaged their AA%. BG=1.053 OG=1.063 TG=1.010 7% ABV
