Sounds fantastic.

What’s DB-24?
Kegged my soured Grisette earlier tonight, dry hopped it with Wakatu for 5 days before. Ended up at 1004, just as I intended. @3.6% ABV. Might throw in some more dry hops in the keg. Will be really interesting to see how it tastes with carbonation. Ended up nicely sour.

Transferred a pale ale onto dry hops today and a saison onto lemongrass paste, fresh mint, and dry hop. Will get kegged Thursday to condition for a week until both kegs head to a beach trip.

It’s a strain of German brettanomyces I bought from Weihenstephan Yeast Bank. It was isolated from a Berliner Weisse brewery in the 1960’s.

I don’t know - the guy didn’t say. I’d need to check my emails with the guy, but I think I asked and he didn’t answer. I think it’s fairly common for yeast banks not to give the exact source of their yeast. I’ll have a look at the emails I sent and maybe send another one asking more specifically.

Ooh, might have to get that from you in another yeast swap!

That sounds really interesting. Have you used it before? What kind of results does it give?
|
I’ve emailed the guy to see if he’ll tell me the exact source. Caleb: Sure! I’ll send you a vial once I’ve got enough cultured-up. VsXsV: I’ve used it once in a Berliner Weisse. It’s nice, and quite distinctive - it doesn’t taste like any other strain I’ve used. Fleshy pear notes, a litle bit of citrus and some quite mild, dusty, cellary funk. The Berliner Weisse isn’t that old yet, so we’ll see how it develops. Going to do lots of experimenting with it over the next while.

Apparently it’s unclear which specific brewery the yeast is from.
