Also potentially of interest, I picked up Treat from Treehouse last week. The specifically mention that they switched to using their house yeast in the description. The beer is absolutely bursting with that Treehouse yeast ester flavors. I think more so than any of the other beers I've had recently.

Thank you Isomerization and Northern Brewer for the responses. Given the distortion at the lower end the WB-06 match is a decent match. I was not trying to beat the WB-06 horse to death anymore, but rather wondering if it could make sense to experiment with a yeast that is genetically close to...

Another benefit of WB06 is that it stood out in terms of biotransformation based on the presentation shared by Isomerization. It results in lower geraniol and higher linalool and citronellol compared with the other strains tested. According to this presentation by a Lab Manager named Kate...

Sorry, subtract a year from those numbers. The trillium employee gave me the impression they had recently change harvest years for their galaxy hops. I definitely taste galaxy in green right now. I had a fresh can last week. And I always taste pineapple in Galaxy beers, especially in something...

The 2019 Green batches have a lot of Galaxy flavor in them, bursting with ripe pineapple, and other tropical fruits. I was chatting with one of the employees at Trillium and we were discussing how muddled beers tasted with the 2018 Galaxy. I think the consensus is that the 2018 Galaxy crop was...

Minor update: Now that the beer has been chilling in the keg for a day and is carbonated, it's tasting great. The greenness has faded and with that the extra bitterness. I've very happy with the subtle spice that comes with ~1g of T-58 in 4.5-5 gallons fermented at 62 degrees. I also like the...

Hi. Long post incoming. I kegged yesterday on day 10. It is force carbonating now but I think I have enough of impression to report. Overall the beer is okay. The look checks out, but maybe too brown. Brewers friend reports 5.42 SRM. It may clear and lighten in color as the beer ages in the keg...

How did this turn out? What was your batch size and how much did you pitch initially and at 36 hours?

Hi StinkyBeer, Thanks for the information about Diastaticus strains. I wasn't aware of this. It sounds like it can be a real nasty gene resulting in keg and bottle gushers. I'm even more curious now to see the effects of a late wb-06 addition as an attenuator. Hopefully I dont ruin a batch of...

My brew day was delayed due to some supply hiccups at the LHBS but I will report back. This is added incentive to not make any mistakes or any on the fly "adjustments." I'm curious to see the gravity when I pitch the WB06 and also the final gravity. Of interest, Scott Janish posted a picture of...

Hi All, I've been following this thread for a while and read through it completely at least once, maybe twice. Thank you all for your contributions, especially those of you who have shared the recipes and results for several repeated batches. Following your journeys has been great. There's been...
