I was going through the discount yeast bin at the local homebrew supply and came across a pack of Wyeast 5112 - Brettanomyces bruxellensis. It was only $2.50 and was from June 2013 so I picked it up.
So what do I do with it now? I've never made a Brett beer but have judged several and enjoyed them. I'd like to try something 100% Brett to see exactly what that yeast does.
I was leaning towards a Saison, but the temperatures here in NC are going to plummet to the 30 - 40's and I don't a desire to rig up a way to bump the temperatures up in my fermentation freezer. I was thinking perhaps a Belgian blonde?
