i plan on brewing denny's Wry Smile Rye IPA in the next couple weeks, and i will be trying out his yeast. instead of making a huge starter, i was thinking of brewing a spotted cowish cream ale with the 1450, then using the cake in the rye ipa. anyone had any luck with this yeast in other brews?
1450 Denny's Favorite 50 in a cream ale, etc?

Ive got an amber ale (all grain kit from northern brewer) that is using it now. I plan on making a black IPA this weekend and using the yeast cake from the amber. Im shooting for an OG of around 1.09 for the IPA so I figured using the yeast cake would be easier than making a big starter. Ill let you know how it works out.
It will work. BUT- it takes forever to clear so you may end up with a cloudy cream ale. For a cream ale, I prefer a much more highly flocculant yeast.
