Had an Old Speckled Hen and a Taylors Landlord last night. Very nice change from my hop forward beers and has me thinking about how to do a malt forward style.

What dry yeast would i use for something like that? I have Nottingham?

The recipe DB has a couple of Landlord clone recipes & the link below is for a OSH recipe by a very well regarded home brewer from the UK. This uses Notto, but I wonder it that's not a bit clean for this beer? I did attempt the extract version for my second ever brew & fucked it up spectacularly as my bittering hops had a much higher AA%.

You've got to really ferment Notto at the top end of its recommended temp range - maybe even a degree or two higher. Otherwise it's too clean.

So clean, in fact, that at its lowest end, it does excellent as a faux-lager yeast. I have used it as this a few times.

I find Notto goes completely out of control if not fermented right at the bottom end, I mean epic yeast explosion.

That's with a Porter/Stout though so maybe it's a bit different with a lighter beer.

Yep, I used it at 18 degrees once. Not particularly estery, but hell yeah - massive krausen and a bit like my lovemaking, it's finished pretty quick.

Northside, did you find the Rogue Yellow Snow extremely bitter? It was my first beer from Rogue and I was really looking forward to it. But it was way too bitter for my tastes. I Didn't enjoy it at all.
 
Yes it was fairly bitter , I did really enjoy it but my palate my have been compromised slightly by the time I tried it .

kinda feels like the wrong time of year to drink it being so cold, but my wife picked it up on a hunter wine trip so couldn't say no.

I had a bottle about a month ago. I thought the bitterness was harsh, dominated by grapefruit.
