Finding Wyeast Pacman?

MJBrowny21 · 10-12-2011, 02:47 PM

I'm brewing my first beer ever with a co-worker and I'm planning on making a Rogue Dead Guy clone which calls for Wyeast Pacman. It seems like nobody has it in stock as it is a special/limited release product. Anyone know of where I could find it? I know the recipe says I can use Wyeast American Ale but would like to use the Pacman. Thanks for your help!

My buddy sells it but unfortunately his ecommerce site isn't up and running. I did a quick search and it looks like this company may have it:

I have found it at rebelbrewer.com many times, check with them. Great yeast!!

Or culture it from the bottle of Rogue.

PM me with your number. I have a friend that works at Rogue and he just sent me a fresh supply of Pacman 2 days ago.

Have you tried BMW? They don't indicate on the site if it's in or not, give them a call and verify:

Austin Homebrew Supply also has it listed under wyeast special yeast. It is actually available year round now.

Sorry guys, I am not that "tight" with my Rogue contact that I an get inside info on recipes.

FYI: I was informed that Rogue can be very accommodating to those that show up on their doorstep and ask nicely for some yeast.
