Hi everyone.
I'm wondering if anyone else experiences this with their batches as I've noticed something about these yeasts.
I get far better results with S-23 than I do with US-05. If I make a hoppy lager compared to a similar pale ale recipe, the hop flavours are far more punchy, in your face and tasty with S-23, a lager yeast, than if I make a pale ale/IPA with US-05.
Not only hop character though, but I have made a couple of stouts with S-23 and the flavours come out far better than with something like S-04 or Empire Ale (MJs) yeast.
I recently tried out W-34/70 as well and had very similar results to S-23. A much more flavourful beer which conditioned Both lager yeasts are very clear as well.
