Hi Guys
I'm yet to use both yeasts and compare.
I was just after anybodies opinion as to whether the finished product turns out pretty similar (in the end).
I was reading in the latest copy of Zymurgy about their comparisons between dry and wet 56. They seem to conclude with limited data and tests that there wasn't much difference.
I recently tried US-56 with a low hopped American Amber and it appears to have that taste (not very good at describing it) that I'd associated other dry yeasts, I had tried over a year ago. To be fair the beer is only two weeks in the bottle.
Anyway this was one of the reasons why I switched to liquid yeast was to get away from this flavour.
Anyone like to comment on what they have found?
Cheers
BK
