Title: NS or Galaxy on Whirlpool
Post by: Leann ull on August 17, 2016, 12:05:24 AM

Doing a lager in 3 days time which I'm gonna have a shoot out between 830 and MJ M54 to see how Lager Yeasts at ale temps really works out.
I have a rock steady larger recipe with Perle and Saaz and usual Malt suspects but I want to do something different in the whirlpool this time, so the question is Nelson Sauvin or Galaxy?

Personally I'd go Nelson, if you can afford it! :P

I'd go Galaxy, as Ns reminds me of a chardonnay in beer :)

First time I tasted Nelson I thought a cat had pissed in the fermenter. It was from Waterford and the brewer was not happy when he heard me from earshot. My policy of publish and be damned stood but because he looked like he was going to cry I turned to him and said that this beer was "interesting" :P.

I'm leaning towards galaxy as I think the Nelson is more suited to Ipas

Thanks guys
