Yeast
WLP007 not 001 like what is in the topic.

Just *barely* had enough mashtun space in my 10g blichmann for my sparge arm. If you aren't sure of your space or you have a large deadspace under your false bottom and a 10g mashtun, you might want to subout some Maris Otter for a pound or two of DME.

I kegged this mofo on Thursday and dropped in 2oz of cascade leaf hops. Did a little tasting yesterday and right now. Holy mother! This is outstanding! Super rich and complex, lightly sweet malt profile, but not confusingly so. Nice and bitter, some good hop flavors. This beer rocks! I'll see how it ages and see if I would change anything.
