Notes
Recommended for American IPA, double IPA, American pale ale, clean strong ale.
Character: Clean and neutral with a fast, vigorous ferment.
A fast, vigorous clean American strain that attenuates higher than the Chico strain and tolerates a big beer, so it suits double IPA and strong ales that need a quick, complete ferment. Its short lag and high attenuation make it a workhorse for a busy brewery. Keep it cool to stay as clean as its reputation.
