Stuff:
This is the third beer in the Summer of the Single American 1056 yeast pack. I racked this beer over the yeast cake from the Spring APA.
There are some obvious advantages to this - like an instantaneous fermentation, and a massive starter for your batch of beer. The downside is that you pass a lot of trub from batch to batch. AND if you get bugs, you will have them 6-fold on the next batch.
So far so good, I served this beer at my birthday party and it was a big hit! I think people really dig the big malt backbone when you are giving them a mouthful of cirtusy American hops. The next batch will be a little dryer, we will see how people react.
