Well, I think I've done it this time.... Churned out 2 AG brews on Monday night, one St Rogues Red Clone and a German Altbier. All seemed to go well - no real probs, got them through to the cubes and no chilled them over the past day and a half.
Then about 3 hrs ago I pitched the yeasts - a Wyeast Kolsch and American Ale II. Then about 5 mins too late I realised.... I'm getting close to 100 percent that I pitched in reverse!
I've read through the Wyeast literature, and I know there's differences, but I'm fermenting them both at a constant 16-17deg for the first week, followed by a week at about 18-19 and then 1 day diacetal rest at about 24. Will then keg and condition at about 12C for prob 2 weeks whilst I do some lagers in the same fridge.
So my question is - what do you all think? Will there be a massively different taste? I'm expecting some, but my view is that they should both be slightly off style, but still very drinkable...
