I am pretty pumped to have a yeast strain that was collected about 20 minutes from my house by DFH. But I'm not sure what to brew with it.
Here is an article and video about the beer:

From DFH's website:
Here is an article from UD that goes a little more in depth.

I can't find any information on the characteristics of this yeast, and I have not been down to the brewpub to try it yet. Im thinking some type of wheat/belgian style beer might work. Any suggestions?

From DFH's website:
Fifer Orchards: Armed with petri dishes, technicians from Dogfish's quality control lab worked with fourth-generation farmer Bobby Fifer to capture wild yeast to ferment DNA.
University of Delaware: Professor Thomas Evans and plant diagnostician Nancy Gregory helped Dogfish Head sequence the DNA of the yeasts, allowing us to choose the best strain to ferment and flavor the beer.
