a few months ago, the idea that Conan was a lager strain was floated in another HT thread. the idea was shot down, by a microbiologist/lab geek if i remember correctly.
Yes, it's an ale yeast according to this post anyhow:

Yea it was Al Buck from East Coast Yeast that confirmed that to me in an email almost a year ago. I wanted to send him some slurry but he happened to have a can of Heady handy, this is also how we know what generation he originally cultured up to start ECY29.
