Traditional Scottish brewers yeast strain, well suited for malt forward beers. Tartan is a traditional strain that accentuates the malt character of Scottish and other malt forward styles. But don't put it in a corner, it can also be used for other styles and works well in IPAs due to its clean fermentation character. For a higher ester profile, use this ale yeast at the top end of the temperature range.
