We tasted his beer right next to a fresh 08/15 can of treehouse Alter Ego at least my wife and I couldnt distinguish the taste from one to the other, just by the aroma.
Don't know his recipe, but i know he used pale malt carapils, oats and 1318 yeast.
That he used 1318 was what really got...
A friend of mine brewed a neipa with 1318 to compare vs my soon to be ready neipa with the blended yeast.
All i can say is that his beer is a perfect clone of Alter ego with the exception of aroma, his was more pungent.
This is going to be a good parameter for me.
@melville Isn't that the ratio @marshallb was using (50/30/20)?
To understand this better, you get your yeast calculation based on the yeast needed to ferment the wort, you divide that number between the three yeasts in the percentage discussed?
I'm going to brew a NEIPA this weekend and...
