So I'm planning on brewing this at Christmas
14% Rye Malt (Briess)
3% Crystal Rye Malt (Thomas Fawcett)
70% Maris Otter Pale - UK
6% Flaked Oats - US
7% Carafa III (Weyermann) (cold steep and added to last 5 min of boil)
80g of Simcoe
60g of Nelson Sauvin
60g of Galaxy all at whirlpool
then dry hop with 40g each of Galaxy and Nelson and 60g of Simcoe
  • OG 1.071
  • FG 1.007
  • Color 58.3 EBC
  • Bitterness 60.5 IBU
  • BU:GU 0.85
  • Alcohol 8.3% ABV
Planning on mashing high and fermenting with Omega yeast's where da funk which they say is ..
"A blend of a mild Brettanomyces isolate from a Colorado brewery known for its Brett beers and two strains formerly classified as Brettanomyces but since found to be Saccharomyces. This blend produces huge tropical fruit aromas during fermentation that fade somewhat during conditioning. Has a wide temperature range and ferments very dry, leaving little body. Consider adding flaked oats if additional body is desired. This blend will not produce significant “funk” or acid, even with extended aging. The blend pairs well with fruity aroma hops to make a unique pale ale."
Any thoughts? Who has used this Yeast/Brett blend?
If the grain bill looks familiar it's based of the Wooky Jack Clone that I saw on here.
