Good to know. I think that has perfectly described both my experiences with m54 and the west coast ale yeast.

Had great stout results with the workhorse yeast however.

Heres the txt from their website

In most cases Mangrove Jack's Craft Series Yeast can be used at a ratio of one 0.35 oz (10 g) pack for up to 6 US Gal (23 L). However, for best results take note of the following exceptions to the rule:

EXCEPTION RECOMMENDATION
Ales of original gravity over 1.050
Lagers to be fermented at 57°F (14°C) or lower
Meads with OG over 1.100

Under-pitching yeast in lagers or stronger ales will result in extended lag times (the time between pitching your yeast and the commencement of fermentation) which can allow undesirable microbes to multiply, tainting your beer.
The yeast will become "stressed" and may produce excessive and undesirable fruity esters and/or sulphur compounds. High end gravities are also possible where lower pitch rates are used, leading to sweet and worty unfinished beer.

I have used m54 for the last 3 brews that I have done and find it  to be a great yeast.  I ferment at 19 degrees.  The results are very clean.  I did a helles @ 1052 and the last was a mosaic smash that was 1054 og and 1008 fg ,  used one pack of rehydrated yeast on all batches.

It's a very clean yeast,  no estery flavours when fermented at 19, I would recommend giving it a go
