Description

Deliciously smooth, light golden in colour, full bodied aromas of vanilla and banana and a lingering aftertaste. This yeast produces a silky mouth feel and rich body.

Flavour/Aroma

It has abundant classic banana esters, balanced with clove like phenolic aromas; these aromas tend to overwhelm any malt or hop character in the beer. While this strain has only a moderate tendency to attenuate, the final beer will not be sweet. Instead, it will have a creamy silky mouthfeel with a full and rich medium body. This strain strips away most caramel and complex malt flavours, while deep roast and chocolate flavours will come through. The slight acidity produced, greatly enhances wheat malt characteristics. It has a very low flocculation rate that makes it ideal for beers that are traditionally served cloudy.

Usage

Sprinkle contents directly onto a maximum of 23 L (6 US Gal) of wort.
