Feedback and experiences from previous customers.
I've been attempting to clone a Schneider Blond/Erdinger style of hefe for a while and I believe I've finally nailed it with this yeast.
Moderate intensity of banana esters and a refreshing plumminess in the finish. Pitched a single vial for 5G to force the yeast out of their comfort zones and produce more character.
Absolutely delishhhhhhhh!
Only my third batch ever and went over very well at the brew club meeting. Seemed a bit slow on the start but took off and produced my best so far. Mild hint of banana and a wonderful flavor in the finished beer.
I used this yeast to brew a special beer for my girlfriend's college graduation party - it really delivered. It produced a very slight banana note, little to no clove or sulphur, and a slight haze. The fermentation temperature was about 72 degrees. The result was a very easy-to-drink ale that won over several homebrew critics.
Fermented at 70-72 degrees for ten days in Dunkleweizen with an o.g. of 1.056. Yeast by products produced excellent flavor for this batch. Banana and clove flavors are very mellow and a crisp tart finish goes well with the high carbonation.
