Hi All,
Just thought I'd toss this up - I bought and brewed with these recently - had no issues at all - very quick fermenter, the scouting report is it's incredibly neutral at 16-18c - allow it to go to low 20's and you will get your classic Belgian characteristics (cloves, spice, banana).
I've not tried yet - but fermented at 18c, increasing slightly for a week, 2 weeks total - was done in 7 days or so.
At this price handy to have - and you could pitch all three packs and still come in under the price of a 'new' pack at your LHBS - from what I've read if stored correctly the shelf life of dried yeast is WELL past the BBD from the maker.
Act fast as I can't imagine they'd have too much of it available:
Cheers.
