I've read rave reviews of this yeast so I made sure to reserve two vials from the LHBS. I used one this past weekend in a low gravity Belgian Pale ale, a recipe I created from looking at a couple of recipes on this site. It's happily fermenting downstairs right now at 66 F.
Because this yeast is only available once a year, I figured I'd make a yeast starter and make another brew and then hold on to a growler of starter for future needs.
Who has used this yeast, and what did you use it for? I'm thinking of using it for a low gravity belgian amber, or maybe an Ommegang Rare Vos clone next. Any suggestions or experiences with this yeast would be appreciated.
