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.

Draught@CPH BeerFest2010. Amber colour, not much head, but the tiny thing there is leaves lace. Aroma is fruits, wood, mild spices and some wooden notes. Flavour is fruity hops along with some mild grassy notes as well.

Very dense, huge yellowish head, with quite some lace over bright foxy-orange beer. Fleeting dry hopbales impression, then full citrus and other fruity esters as passion fruit. Sharp, but very fruity flavour, sweetish-bitter, very aromatic, ending again on dry hopbales. Very long bitter aftertaste, bit harsh. Quite slick, medium bodied, sharp MF, oily. Typical US ale, astride on IPA and IIPA. For the series: totally wrong choice of hops.

During my last visit in early May to Copenhagen I bought the whole Yeast Series, five 330ml bottles, at Ølbutikken and carried them back home. All of them were shared with Finn at a vertical drinking session. Apart from the Brettanomyes version I found them all rather similar in aroma and taste profile. This one poured a rocky and dense, near-white head with fragile lacing on the glass. Hazy amber coloured body. Nice aroma of fresh hoppy fruits. Succulent aroma of citric and tropical fruits with caramel malts behind. Dry bitter ending. Medium bodied and pleasant to drink (Tromsø, 25.05.2010).
