Two brews in three days, cheers to summer holidays! I concluded my adventures in Belgian ales by creating Jokuma’s Wild (Golden Strong Ale) and Jokuma’s Wilder (Dark Strong Ale), using White Lab’s WLP570 Belgian Golden Ale yeast. I have to say I’m already quite keen on WLP570; it’s incredibly clean and low profile with wonderful fruit notes only after a day into fermentation. Will definitely use again – I can’t wait to see how she tastes!
