Well I'd take his beers. Mine are old, or at least one is and who wants old beer.

What yeast is used for Heady Topper. I haven't opened mine from my MAW yet, I know crazy right, so I figure I'll jump on the opportunity to propagate it too. I'd love to use it for my Badfish IIPA.

It is called Conan. It is John Kimmich's proprietary yeast stain. I've read some awesome stuff about its attenuation and the flavors it provides.

There is a monster thread here where a bunch of guys are trying to clone Heady Topper:
https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f12/heady-topper-can-you-clone-390082/
Seems like a moving target for them, but one thing they all appear to agree on is that Conan is a huge contributor to the flavor and aroma characteristics of the beer. Throws some big, unique esters--so much so that there is quite a bit of debate over whether certain characteristics are contributed by the hops or by the Conan.
I'd say if you have Heady in your possession, it'd definitely be worth it to build up starter from the dregs.

Thats the idea. Then turn that starter into 2 or 3, from there I can wash cakes to get even more.

Is it weird that I am more excited about the 3 Homebrews than the commercial beers? The Rustic Saison in the champagne bottle has me licking my lips!

Nice hit Rob!!! That Guava Grove is really good stuff. I was fortunate enough to go to a CC beer dinner some months ago where they brewed a special 5gal batch of a Strawberry Saison just specifically for the beer dinner. You can't go wrong with anything they brew.

No, it's not weird. I felt the same way after a negotiated trade with Matt (igotsand). As a matter of fact his trade is why I include homebrews now! Hope you enjoy!!!
Just curious did the snifter survive the trip? That was the only thing I wasn't sure would make it packed in with the beers.

Drinking it now. It's fantastic! Feel free to include any Homebrew of yours in future MAW packages.

I like how you personalized the hit with a vial of slurry. Nice touch!!

Thanks man. I love the feedback, good or bad. I am almost out of that one I gotta brew it again. Guess I will double batch. I have a 14%abv imp stout going. Its gonna age on Madagascar vanilla beans, cocoa nibs, ancho & chipotle Chile's

Brewing has taught me patience . I will gladly wait.
InityBrew said:
Ha!!! I completely misread "This guy". I'm trying to figure out why someone is giving me a hard time for appreciating another fella's Homebrew. My wife is right. I need to do a better job of looking for the good in folks. Especially in this thread.
Hmmm... think I need to take a quick trip down to the store.

Awesome, enjoy that Conan it's a great strain.

Maybe down the line we'll put together a thread where everyone collectively makes a giant yeast bank. That way you just say what your looking for and someone hooks you up. As a group the amount of strains that could be collected and kept on hand would be quite impressive.

I already spend way too much on shipping, I'm not sending any keggles.
LOL! Yea, I couldn't imagine the price of shipping for that!

I converted a 48qt igloo cooler using a CPVC manifold and bulkhead from bargainfittings.com and am in the process of converting a keggle. I like the freedom of all grain.

I gave some to a friend to plate and he hasn't had the time. Whenever he does, I'd be happy to send out a few vials.

My buddy is supposed to be opening his nano in a month or two. I wanna see if I can culture what I've got from the can and turn it into enough for him to possibly use. I pitched the idea of making a yeast bank of really good limited yeasts and he sounded up for it.
