Clean flavored yeast strain for lemon soda

[beerisuber]

So my brother and his new wife don't drink and I made some, what I thought was really good lemon soda. They said it tasted yeasty and I do notice it but being a beer drinker I didn't catch it.

I used Red Star - Premier Cuvée. Any ideas on a cleaner yeast strain for carbonation?

Thanks.

Have you tried US 05?

In all honesty Muntons Ale yeast is the best tasting from everything I've tried, people told me that Champagne yeast was the cleanest but I didn't think so after trying it a few times, so I tried muntons and it worked like a charm, I don't make a Root Beer batch without it!

I always get a cleaner taste if I use a yeast nutrient, though I've only ever used Red Star Pasteur Champagne and Premier Cuvee.

US-05 is about the cleanest youll get unless you get into liquid yeasts where there's hybrid ale/lager ones
