Hey folks,
I've never really strayed from the basic WLP001 strain, unless I was playing around with a Kolsch or Wit. That said, I'm very curious about WLP028 Edinburgh Scottish yeast. In particular, I'm wondering if it should be *the* yeast I use in my upcoming annual pumpkin ale.
Can anyone describe the kinds of flavors WLP028 produces? Have you brewed a pumpkin ale with WLP028? If so, what are your thoughts? Everything I've found online doesn't really describe the flavor -- just says it's a good yeast for malty Scottish Ales. White Labs themselves seems to insist that WLP028 is a great default strain, rather than WLP001.
What say you, brewers?
