Fermentis Dry Yeasts

[sir_piggy]

Hi All,
Having a look at some brews for future production and tied up on which yeast to use.

Belgian Wit (Hoegaarden clone) WB-06 / T-58

English Nut Brown Ale (maybe Irish Stout) US-05 / S-33

If anyone has any experience, opinions or advice on the above it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike

I've used safale s04 with great success on all English beer including the nut brown kit from Ean
isn't s33 a lager yeast ?
Watchout there's a few folks on here who are reL anti s04
it seems to be one of those polarizing yeasts you either like it you hate it!
I found it gives authentic english bready flavours and clears very nicely
i was told it is the whitbread strain

WB06 is a weizen yeast, not a belgian yeast, so go with T-58 or S33

Nut brown you could go with anything from S04, US05 or even K97 if you are feeling fancy (altbier yeast from memory)

T-58 is a great dry, but I don't really think it'll work in a wit. It's rather strong in flavour.

I personally would go with S-33.
