The Yeast Series will be similar to the Single Hop Series. They are identical beers – only difference is the yeast series is that the beers will be fermented with different yeast strains.
It will be a ‘strong pale ale’ – 8%, pretty well hopped but not oven the top. Malt, hops, water are identical. Only difference is the yeast.

Weird beard. Fantastic with a huge thick creamy very long lasting off white head. Aroma is mainly yeast and a hint of malt. Flavor is likewise just basically old yeast and old malt. And it's just not very good.

Bottle shared by Butters at the 20th Richmond Gathering. Pours a hazy amber color with a large foamy off-white head. Decent head retention. Aroma of caramel malts, citrus hops, clean finish. The taste is caramel malts, citrus hops. Medium bodied, fairly clean.

11.2 oz. bottle, pours a murky, opaque brownish orange with a small beige head. Aroma of caramel malts, citrus hops, dry grapefruit peel and some spices. Flavour of spicy citrusy hops, some caramel malt, dry citrus fruit peel, with very low sweetness. Spicy, earthy, dry body, with a medium-high astringency on the finish. Decent.

Cloudy amber beer. Big off white head. Light soft palate, a little dry. Soft malt, lightly creamy. A little citrus before well behaved hops. Finishes with mild crispness.

Muddy light amber color (ok, the bottle was shaken enough 24 hours before); beautiful head, generous and compact, with a lace. The aroma, yeasty, is nice, but less spectacular than in a clean bottle. Good malt flavor, with strong yeast presence, and a pleasant degree of fruitness. Correct bitterness. Always good.
2010-07-14, bottle; parallel tasting with the Belgian Ale Yeast version, 8-5-8-4-16=41
Hazy amber color; generous head; beautiful lace. The fruity hop aroma is prominent, soft piney resins follow, and a light creamy touch replaces the spices of the Belgian Ale version. The body seems to be a bit rounder; there is a good caramel flavor, with some sweetness; good fruity hops and ending resins; strong bitterness. The final, caramel and resiny hops, is very pleasant. This version is softer and mellower than the other, better blended, at the same time without the (interesting) edges of the spicy touch.

Slightly clear, somewhat hazy amber coloured body with a copper glow and a thicker (than the Hef Yeast) tan head. Aroma of hay, grass, herbal hops and a bit of a medicinal scent - just like the Hef series, but not as strong. Medium-bodied; Assertive hop note of grass and flowers with some lighter yeast and malt notes, a touch of dry oak and finishes with a nice siasony type vibe. Overall, an okay beer, but not amazing - a nice hoppy vibe with a slightly saisony and barnyardie finish. A touch more dry and hoppy with less medicinal flavours as the Hef Yeast Series, but nothing extraordinary. I sampled this 33 cL bottle purchased from State Line Liquors in Elkton, Maryland on 10-August-2011 for US$5.99 sampled at home in Washington on 10-October-2011.
