Wyeast...I just bought a pack I'm going to use in a Winter Warmer.

Its seasonal, which is why you got such an enthusiastic response from mordantly

I like that yeast, not so much for flavor(which is good flavor btw) but because it does well when your temps dip down a bit. Made temp control easy for me when I was a noob. I swear I had that sucker fermenting an american brown with a swing of almost 10 deg with good attenuation and no memorable off flavors.

I think I was ranging 62-70 for two weeks straight.

I've even fermented higher than recommended and there were no off flavors. I made a light ale with a heavy hop profile and it was awesome! It's a pretty forgiving yeast.

appreciate the replies!

anybody know what the Wyeast # designation is? Would be listed for sale at Northern Brewer, etc?

is WLP 041 the same yeast?
