Description

White Labs WLP060 American Ale Blend yeast

This blend of three strains creates a clean and neutral fermentation character, making it ideal for use in many different American beer styles. The blend lends complexity to finished beer by exhibiting a crisp, clean lager-like character with accentuated hop flavors and bitterness. A slight amount of sulfur can be produced during peak fermentation.  This blend tastes more lager like than WLP001 California Ale and hop flavours and bitterness are accentuated, but not to the extreme of WLP001 California Ale.
