Hey folks.
https://www.northernbrewer.com/products/houblonmonstre-tripel-ipa-all-grain-kit
My wife's parents bought me this beer kit for Christmas, with two packs of 3522. Best by date on the yeast is June 17, 2023. I kinda spaced on having the kit and planning to brew it up this afternoon. By my calculations, 2 packs is a huge under pitch and I dont have time to make a starter. I do have several yeasts lying around that I can pitch along with the 3522 though. As far as Belgian type yeasts, I have dry belle saison and T58. Beyond that I have notty, k97, and verdant (which is ear marked for an upcoming brew, ideally). Anyone have some suggestions on what will go best with this brew? Im leaning towards the belle saison since its sort of an 'extra' pack and might play well with the 3522? Or is tossing a pack of nice boring Nottingham a better idea?
