Description
Strain: 1272
AMERICAN ALE II
Species: Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Profile: With many of the best qualities that brewers look for when brewing American styles of beer, this strain’s performance is consistent and it makes great beer. This versatile strain is a very good choice for a “House” strain. Expect a soft, clean profile with hints of nut, and a slightly tart finish. Ferment at warmer temperatures to accentuate hop character with an increased fruitiness. Or, ferment cool for a clean, light citrus character. It attenuates well and is reliably flocculent, producing bright beer without filtration.
Flocculation: Medium High
Apparent Attenuation: 72-76%
Apparent ABV Tolerance: 10%
Temperature Range: 60-72°F
