  Hell if you count the number of likes in this thread to things I said, the OP who we bantered

  I thought the idea behind a bottling bead was to get rid of yeast cloudiness.Doesn't a

  Hmmm, wasn't thinking of T-58 as a Belgian Style. I'll take your advise here and perhaps go to

  Just curious why you guys suggest a dryer yeast. On the whole I prefer a more fruity/estery
