I was at the store the other day and picked up a six pack of two hearted ale, I read the packaging and it said unfiltered and unpastuerized......with no end product in mind I decided to harvest the yeast.
So now I have this bells yeast and I don't even know what kind of yeast strain I have my hands on? From tasting two hearted, it is obviously a very attenuative strain, but I think it has some fruity esters too...is it maybe a derrivative or mutation of dry english yeast?
Regardless, I was thinking about doing something like Imperial Two Hearted Ale..since I have the yeast and a pound of centennial.
