I can't say I know much about the life and times of yeast outside the basics, but I'm assuming there must be a catch to reusing the same lot over and over, even if you went to the trouble of washing it and making a starter. Or is there?
Now I can use my keezer strictly for the kegs, I'd like to have a house beer tucked away along side whatever else I'm having a play with. So I'l be making the same style of beer pretty much over and over until I'm bored with it, and if it was the last Saison I made, that could be quite a few months, and thus, quite a few bites at the cherry, yeast wise.
Will the yeasties eventually just clap out and under attenuate or simply begin throwing off flavours?
