The S-05 Beer -
Appearance - This beer is more cloudy then the S-04, though the colour seems a similar copper. The head is less foamy and smaller then the S-04 as well.
Taste – The difference in odour and taste a very apparent. The aroma is much more yeasty and raw, reminding me of a wheat ale. The beers flavours reflect this, with notes of incense like flowers and banana, finishing bitter and grassy. The bitter aftertaste lingers as well.
Mouth Feel - Very soft, slightly foamy and not that filling. The aftertaste is sour and lingers for a good duration.
Final – Like night and day. Even though this is only the second beer I have sampled of the four from the Great Yeast Experiment I already have my answer: Yeast greatly affects the overall character of a beer. The smell, the taste and the feel. It contributes to it all. I cannot wait to try the others.
