WLP002 is my house yeast I use for most of my beers but I may well buy a packet of this as a an emergency back up.

I plan to try a pack or two once the weather cools down a bit and I start brewing again.
I'm just here for the beer.

I'll be keen to try this, but can't find an info about UK release.

If they sell that in small amounts I can see it doing well as a "back-up" style fridge pack. At the bottom currently though it talks about 500g packs.....

I hope it's available in sachets in the next few months as I've got a brew planned that requires it. I know I'm lazy but I do prefer using dried rather than liquid.
Maybe one day though..........

Cheers Tom

Just seen a tweet from Lallemand UK saying that it is now available in both 500g and 11g sachets.

So I would expect to see it appearing in all your favourite home brew stores fairly soon.
Ingredients: Water, Barley, Hops, Yeast, Seaweed, Blood, Sweat, The swim bladder of a sturgeon, My enemies tears, Scenes of mild peril, An otter's handbag and Riboflavin.

Excellent :)

I e-mailed them earlier this morning about it. Maybe they'll give me some free samples? ;) Here's hoping anyway.

Cheers. Tom

In a tweet further down the feed it says it's stocked at Murphys & Sons. Can't see it on their website though

I found a web store that lists it, but are temporarily out of stock. They say they'll have more on Tuesday. If they do I'll get several packs. I have an amber ale first on my list to brew once the weather cools down a bit and I'm thinking I'll get it a go with this yeast.
I'm just here for the beer.

It's in the States and now they have posted that they will be getting more on the 18th instead of the 6th. I may have to search around a bit more.
