In the summer of 2018 I made a Brett Pale Ale. The grain bill was Maris Otter and Pale Wheat, and I chucked in a small amount of Citra and Simcoe at Flame out, keeping the IBUs low. I fermented it with US-O5 and WY5526 (Lambicus).

Fast forward to March 2019 and I tasted it. It was dull, like an insipid pale ale. To try and liven it up I threw in a batch of Yeast Bay Beersel Brett and left it alone.

Today I had another taste, and if anything it’s more like an insipid pale ale than before.

What next? I can chuck a bunch of fruit in, or add another yeast, or try and revive the yeast, or drink it and regret the 15 months wasted on it.

Any ideas?
