I am going to brew a RIS with an approximate O.G. of 1.15 and an abv of approximately 14%. Of course this is going to require a huge starter. My question is, using Wyeast 1968 London ESB, which has an alcohol tolerance of 9%, and following up with Super Yeast to allow to ferment out, would I need to build a starter to the quantity calculated for the O.G. Is the London ESB, going to provide significant enough of a flavor profile as to require making such a huge starter? and when is a good time to add the super yeast? Or should I forget the London ESB and just go with the Super Yeast?
