AKA Chico Ale yeast, 1056 American Ale is yeast starter is used commercially for several classic American ales and homebrew recipes. This wyeast nutrient strain finishes soft, smooth, and clean, and is very well balanced. Apparent attenuation: 73-77%. Flocculation: low-medium. Optimum temp: 60°-72° F
*NOTE:*During summer months, we include complimentary ice packs with all liquid yeast orders. However, it is difficult to guarantee that the ice packs will stay frozen given transit times and particularly hot temperatures. For this reason, we recommend ordering dry yeast during summer months.
Have had consistant good results using Wyeast packets. Perform much better in my estimation than dried yeast products, especially in cooler climates. Fermentation begins in a timely manner. For ales, I will always try to use liquid yeast.

Great IPA yeast
My go-to liquid yeast for IPAs, as it is super clean, takes off quickly in a starter and when pitched. I usually see medium attenuation, which gives noticeable body to my beers which usually have somewhat of a malt presence, and decent flocculation, especially after cold-crashing.

I use Wyeast for its reliability and have for many years. I have never had a bad experience with Wyeast products.
