I haven’t tried the combos in a while and will do soon. So you’re not getting any clove whatsoever from Wb? Are you naturally carbonating?

Oh crap! Oh well disregard then. I did however read on BA someone saying they saw a big flask at Monson that said house yeast on it fwiw.

That pic is from a long time ago so things could have changed. But what’s with the two little flasks and one big one??

Hmm

I have thought about the same thing. There can be a few options.. - in 2012 they could have been using different yeast like white labs. Who knows, maybe they still do? - could be starters for krausening - could indeed been starters for dry yeast/yeast blend - could be experiments testing...

Yes hefe with clove. Some banana no fruit except maybe apple but that could be from letting it go too long. Very cloudy.

So after chilling the starter, taste and aroma is straight hefe. How and which yeast is the question

Made a small starter from the bottom of a doppelgänger can just to see what happens. Not going to use it, just want to pick out any smells or tastes. After 36 hours there’s some clumps (some are big some are small) and getting a slight hint of clove in the aroma.

Was it confirmed that there was a T-58 or like isolate in the TH stout tested?

And you’re getting no clove? Every time I’ve used wb06 I’ve gotten some form of clove and it’s not from the t-58.

Always room temp when carbonating so I would let it warm up first.

How long did you let it carb at room temp?

I’ve done this. I didn’t let it reach krausen, just rehydrated the yeast in the wort and add to the keg.

How you know?

I think you’re getting the phenols from the wb06 not t58 from my experience. I still honestly don’t know where the wb06 fits in. Maybe krausening added with CBC and then crashed before it gives off any of those flavors?

Wonder what malt and hops they use. Also fwiw, I had a can I bought in the city and it had dyacital.

Has anyone tried Sloop juice bomb yet? Something about it reminds me of TH. Could be the malt or hops..

Hey all its been a while. @campfire can you elaborate on this recipe? S-o4 and wb-06 and no clove? Starter for each one? How big a starter and how many gallons wort? Hmm might give this a shot.

Tasted the starter after crashing in the fridge. Just tastes like non-hoppy beer. No fruit or esters that I can pick out, just clean malt beer. Hmm I still think they're using some sort of malt to give that signature taste they have. But what is it!?

Too late, I used DME. Too bad a can of Bright was never tested..
