Trappist High Gravity (Wyeast 3787)

Wyeast · 3787 · ale

Westmalle-derived Trappist for high-gravity beers.

Description

The Westmalle strain again, packaged with high gravity in mind. Robust fermenter that handles tripels and quads above 10% ABV. Plummy, phenolic, and surprisingly clean once it finishes. Pairs naturally with Belgian candi sugar additions.
