Greetings happy brewers!
While working and tweaking a recipe for a dark beer and doing a bit of research, was wondering what exactly would happen to the beer if I added a wine yeast? I know the scientific facts, e.g. it doesn't eat certain sugars, but what does that mean will happen to the beer?
Some say it makes it "sweeter" and more alcoholic (which is kind of what I'm going for), others say it doesn't ferment properly and doesn't work, others say it makes a funny tasting beer.
I'm planning on using WLP750 and if anyone has used a wine yeast in a beer, please can you let me know what your results are? Thank you!
