Shrike 6,313 Posted September 5, 2020 I'm thinking of using it instead of US-05 in a pale ale I'll be brewing in a few weeks. Anyone brew with it? Thoughts? Likes/dislikes? I did a search for it on here and most of the mentions of it are from seven-eight years ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bonsai & Brew 6,800 Posted September 5, 2020 I like it because it’s not US-05.🙂With a west coast Amber ale currently fermenting with BRY, I’m expecting a neutral flavor profile that lets the malt character dominate. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bonsai & Brew 6,800 Posted September 5, 2020 Maybe @Nickfixit will have an opinion as well. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nickfixit 4,033 Posted November 29, 2020 I see I was called for an opinion on BRY-97. I used it in Cream Ale, Wit and IPA Cream ale was initially butterscotch taste, but cleaned up then just corn - so meh. Wit was dryish and OK I?PA was very nice very fruity - I used some NZ hops. (The ? denotes fairly low IBUs, I used 3 oz. hops in 2 gal for late boil, flameout and dry hop adds.) So I would say Go for it. I think it gets good reviews in Biotransformation so may accentuate fruity hops flavors. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
