Description
Classic English produces soft, juicy, and tropical fruit flavors when fermenting beers made with citrusy hops. This culture has become the de facto standard for making hazy New England-style IPAs in addition to the Classic New England culture. Ideal for fermenting Milkshake IPA, Brut IPA and other IPA sub-styles. Traditionally used for making ester-drive Porters, Stouts, Pale Ales, Bitters, and most English-style ales.
