I've found that wyeast 1272 American ale II has a slight twang that prefer over the use of acidulated malt. The acid malt also lowers the mash pH, which has already been lowered by the roasted...

In my experience, there can be fair acidity produced depending on the strain. SN/RRB Brux is a great example. If you try it fresh, it has nice body and a mild twang. If you keep it for a month at...
