Proper job yeast made my tribute clone taste like my Belgium

Post by j4c » Fri Jan 20, 2017 5:56 pm

Hello has anyone else found the st Austell yeast in a bottle of proper job makes there beer taste like a Belgium beer.
I tried both starters when growing the yeast and thought it tasted like one of my previous brews. I used WLP530 with that beer.
Now the beer has got down to 1.010 in the fv and tastes just like that brew as well.
I cant get any hint of hops. I bought a tribute clone kit from the malt miller, fuggled and styrian where the hops.
Should i dry hop the cr@p out?
Any ideas would be good. Cheers

I didn't, I found it gave a crisp mineral type flavour.

Maybe you under pitched or wrong temp, the list could be long, but it's sounds like stressed yeast ?

I started it at 17c then brought it up to 20 over a few days. I thought it would blow out the top as thats what happened with the starters on the stir plate.
It got it from 1.041 to 1.010 in about 9 days i guess.
I suppose now its fermented i can't change much.
Gonna be my first brew down the drain
