I just brewed this again and I used WLP001. The OG was 1.112 and the FG was 1.031. I added a packet of champagne yeast at day 34, this did not move the gravity at all. I left it in the primary for a total of 41 days before bottling. the first two weeks were temp controlled at 70F, the last 4 were closer to 85 to experiment with a more rapid bulk aging process. At time of bottling, the uncarbed beer was very palatable and clear with no apparent greenness, especially for a brew pushing 11%. No hot alcohol flavors since fermentation was complete when the temp was increased. I will update in another week or two with how the brew tastes with a bit of carbonation.

I'm wanting to brew a similar beer this weekend, but am worried about the yeast. Planning on using the WLP001, will one packet be enough? I don't have time to make a starter...

If you can spend the extra money on an extra vial, I would recommend it. But, I pitched a single vial the last time I made it, with no starter. And it turned out great. I am sure the yeasts were wuite stressed, but like I said before I did not get any fusels or any other off flavors. Just be patient with it. What does your recipe look like?

12# Light DME (6# in the boil, 6# at knockout)
8 oz Caramel/Crystal 60L
8 oz Caramel/Crystal 40L

2oz Columbus for 60 min
1oz Kent Goldings for 60 min
1oz Cascade for 30 min
1.5 oz Kent Goldings for 30 min
1oz Centennial for 30 min
1oz Kent Goldings for 15 min
1oz Cascade at flameout
1oz Kent Golding at flameout

1 packet White Labs 001

This is all pending on what my LHBS has in stock, especially with all the hops. I'm pretty flexible with the hops as long as I can find something similar. I am going to dry hop for a week with 1oz Cascade and 1oz Kent Goldings, then transfer to another carboy and add 2oz oak chips.

It turned out ok. Lots of alcohol burn, and a little ethanol-y taste. Not my favorite, but it was my first attempt at a barleywine so we'll see what happens next time.
