I made a superb Belgian blonde with it (S-33).
The recipe was TDA's Fly Blown Belgian.
Very close match to Leffe blonde.

Well, I've let it sit for a good while now and it's still at ~ 1.018.
The flavour profile is nice, I think even cleaner than US-05. But it's just sweeter than I'd like.
I have a bitter bubbling away with WLP 005. I'll rack the S-33 brew onto a dose of the 005 slurry. Hopefully that'll drag it down a few points. Might even try chucking a brew onto the mixed slurry and see what happens.
I usually manage an AA of 71% - 72% out of this yeast in a Klsch mashed low at around 62C. If your OG was in the 65 range it's probably done, but being a summer ale it was more likely around 40 so thats a pretty poor AA of 54%. Have found this yeast to be a little temperamental and will drop out if the temp falls, doesn't like temp fluctuations.
