I’m brewing a porter and debating whether to use the Wyeast 1098 (British Ale) or 1099 (Whitbread).
From what I’ve read these are both Whitbread strains, with the 1098 being drier, cleaner, and having higher attenuation.
I think I’d like the fruity character of the 1099 better in a porter. Anyone have experience with these strains?
