Flavour/mouthfeel characteristics
This yeast ferments clean and relatively neutral with a moderate, well-balanced ester profile adding subtle complexity. Beers fermented with this yeast have a moderately dry finish but retain a good level of mouthfeel, to prevent the perception of a thin mouthfeel.
High alcohol beers
With good alcohol tolerance up to 10% ABV, this yeast works particularly well in stronger IPA styles. Higher ABV beers will retain a good level of body without being too heavy.
