Trying WY1099 never used it I'm going through the wyeast catalog.
My favorite UK strains are WY1318, WLP013, WY1469. Looking for any
input on what to expect. I usually make a golden,bitter,brown,mild,porter,
and a stout,using subsequent pitches. I was curious of what other peoples
experiences are with this yeast I understand it is the sweet Whitbread,as opposed to the dry WLP007/WY1098/S04. I have never used S04 or the WLP007, I did use WY1098 but it was long ago. My usual motif for English style is to pitch cool 60-62F raise up to 64F-67F for 3 or 4 days and slowly raise to 70-72F and bottle on day 10 or so. This strain isn't as popular it seems as a lot of others so I look forward to hearing any comments.
