My Favorite Review by Michael

Rating

I used this on my second batch, and after experimenting with other strains, this has become my "House" strain. Its relatively clean, but does produce some flavor. Produces pretty clear beers. Highly recommend it. (Posted on 6/20/11)

Good Stuff Review by Jfrank

Rating

Did a rye pale ale with this yeast about a month back. I did a hop burst with about 2 oz of citra and chinook hops and this yeast complimented it very well! The fruity tartness pulls alot of mango taste from the citra. Plus the slight spice of the rye melded well with the fruity back end. I would recommend to anyone who wants to brew an APA or IPA with citrusy/fruity qualities. (Posted on 4/26/11)

I used this yeast for 10 generations of APA this summer. Great flavor, clean w/ a touch of fruitness. (Posted on 12/2/10)

Cleaner than 1056 Review by Mike

Rating

A friend of mine made 10 gallons of beer and split it into two different fermenters. One had the American Ale 1056 and one had the American Ale II 1272. We both agreed the 1272 was a better overall yeast compared to the 1056. Plus the fermentation started sooner and seemed to attenuate more.

Check out all the notes on my blog if your interested.
