From Original Brewer:
Light American Lager, brewed with Ale yeast.The results are in on this beer!
My advice go with the Wyeast 1272 American Ale II. The Safale US-05 tastes watered down and thin compared to the American Ale II.
We did a little tasting party with these two. Everybody (novice and experienced drinkers alike), resoundingly preferred the batch fermented with American Ale II. Damn this is a great beer!
I brewed this beer in November 2019 and the results were outstanding I pitched US-05 and worked out fine. I also used Minute Rice instead of flaked rice.
2-11-20: Swapped the 10L with Honey Malt (Briese)
