I brewed two Pumpkin Ales last year, same recipe with 2 different yeasts.
WLP011 European Ale: This brought out the spiced aroma, but didn't do much for the flavor.
WLP864 Cry Havok: The better one, had a much nicer flavor and even though the aroma was more mild than 011, the flavor made this the winner of the two.
This year, I don't have either of those on hand. I could go buy them, but what I do have on hand are these two:
WLP060 American Ale
1945 NB Neobritannia
Of the two listed above, which do you think would make a better pumpkin ale?
Is there a favorite yeast you use for Pumpkin Ales that isn't listed?
