        Highly dependable ale yeast praised for fast, vigorous fermentation and clean results. Customers said it "never fails" with excellent attenuation, working well in English styles, IPAs, pale ales, and stouts. Best at 62-70°F. Some noted it ferments so vigorously a blow-off tube is needed. One customer found it too dry for malty IPAs.

        Clean & Clear every time

        I use this for English and American ales particularly my pale ales. Fermenting at 67-68 gives a fast clean fermentation that lets the malt come through. Tried winter fermentation with it this season and found that it'll chug away at 62 and have a 1.054 down to a 1.009 in 10 days in the basement.

        Good workhorse

        Works well in pale ales. This yeast is fast so it's best to pitch at 70 degrees or below to slow it down a bit. It is my go to yeast.

        Well behaved yeast

        This is a very good yeast; I used 2 packs for a ten gallon batch of Porter and it fermented very clenly at the the lower end of its range. It didn't attenuate as far down as I expected but it was close enough and I didn't detect any residual sweetness. I'll use it again.

        Never had an issue with it. I love it in my IPAs.

        I brewed an English IPA and used Nottingham’s as the yeast. I did not make a slurry. I simply poured the yeast on top of the wort and aerated it for a good five minutes. Fermentation kicked off within 24 hours and had good activity for several days. The beer is bottle conditioning

        Great dry yeast.

        Never any problems with this yeast. More Beer always gives a good date so I can keep some on hand. Also easy to harvest for future use.

        Interesting even if fermented warm

        I am a Las Vegas homebrewer with no temperature control other than my AC. My first summer brew with this yeast was during a heatwave (115F+ for a week straight). Fermentation was between 75 and 80F. I definitely got red-berry fruity esters but they were light and very pleasant.

        Very impressed for a first try

        I had some serious reservations using this yeast and thinking that it would have English character. It actually does. I brewed an ESB on the high end and hopped with EKG and Fuggles. I bottle conditioned it and it flocculated very well..nice and clean. My only "drawback" with this yeast is that it ferments like a madman which may sound great and it is but you will need to make sure you control your temps well. It will want to go up on you. I caught it in time but the vigorous fermentation might catch you off guard if you are one that pitches areates and walks away for a few days. Anyway I havested from the primary washed it and pitched into a smoked porter. As expected I had activity in a few short hours. Don't hesiate to give Nottingham a try. I'm glad I did!

        Great yeast for English beers

        I used this for a Brown Ale 5 gal made a 1 lt starter fermentation begun in 2 hours and it went fast and furious. Great flavor. Bought another one for an Irish Red and definitely will buy again.

        A robust yeast

        It is interesting for me to read the reviews. As brewers we are essentially artists and each ingredient is a tool or a color or a hue that we can use that ultimately affects our product. So Notty is in this class... It has its place. Malty beers it excels. It is great at IPA's... but possibly US05 is better for pale ales IPA's etc. I bottle condition. I have noticed that Nottingham forms a wonderfully compact yeast cake at the bottom.. so that I can essentially tip the whole contents of the bottle into the glass and get a lovely clear beer (the yeast is stuck to the bottom of the bottle)! Beautiful! & Appearance often accounts for the perception of a good beer. US05 on the other hand does not flocculate so well and requires more attention when pouring. Notty I have noticed gives a pleasant taste to it that is lightly estery (it is a British yeast). US05 is very clean tasting almost crisp but in my hands did not flocculate as well as Notty. It is great we have the choice!

        This stuff is a yeast TANK

        After you re-hydrate this yeast properly it'll chew through pretty much anything you throw at it with impunity. Most vigorous fermentation I've seen so far in my brewing experience. Definitely recommend a blow off tube with these yeasties!

        My new go too

        The more I use Nottingham the more I like it. Just have to watch out for volcanoes sometimes. Great dry yeast!

        Go to Yeast for British Styles

        Nottingham produces good attenuation and clarity. It is very neutral and great for British style ales (especially my favorite ESB and Northern Brown recipies). I recommend it highly for these balanced styles. Might not be the best for an IPA but it's a great all around yeast for balanced ales. Recommend fermenting around 65-68 degrees.

        Haven't used it yet

        I have this in my fridge as a backup. I am going to use it in the next stout that I make and I will follow up. I have bought numerous yeast from MoreBeer and I have never had an issue yet.

        Works well

        Works very well it does almost all the fermentation in 1-2 days. Good attenuation.

        The Ol' Standby

        Treat the yeast and your fermenting beer well and the yeast will reward you with a clean beer. Works fast and clears well however will strip out some of the aroma from hoppy beers. Good to always have a pack on hand just in case.

        Kicks hard

        Recently used this yeast fermented fast and hot. Keep an eye on the temperature it will heat up your wort.

        Great yeast

        Excellent yeast for most British beers. Also makes the brew day less expensive. After rehydration my wort started fermenting within hours andhad a full krausen after 12 hours. Good final ester profile needed for English styles and good attenuator to stay away from a cloying beer. My go to yeast for English IPA's and Barleywines.

        good yeast but don't use in some ipas

        I had good results with this yeast; however I was also given dubious advice that I could substitute it for safale US-05 in a malty american IPA. The beer had a dryness that was inappropriate to the style. Otherwise this yeast is solid.

        Great Ale Yeast for All Ales

        This is one of the best yeast strains of all time IMHO. I have used it in a wide variety of ales from cream ales to stouts and it always gets the job done. If I'm doing a high gravity beer then I re-hydrate the yeast first otherwise you can just sprinkle this yeast right on top of your cooled wort in the primary. Way easier than the slap packs yeast. Thumbs up on this yeast!

        I use it for everything

        This is a great yeast. Starts fast finishes dry Good alcohol tolerance (I've had it go to 14%). I've used it on everything from Stouts to IIPAs.

        Great fermenter - versatile too!

        This is a great yeast for both American and English ales (I've run American styles at a lower temp with it). Not really estery and you get a great second run if you pitch another wort on top of the old cake. It will ferment hard and quick on the second and third run but if you keep it clean it'll go for a few rounds for you. Great stuff!

        Great performning yeast

        Keep a few spare packages for any occasion. I'm brewing the 2L trub/cooler run off to get a side by side comparison. Great packaging.

        Spare Yeast - Stock It!

        Got your brew done and pitched a yeast that isn't taking off? ALWAYS have a spare yeast on stock. This is an excellent Ale yeast with good attenuation. It's called insurance. You may not have to use it but it is valuable nonetheless.

        My other Go To Yeast

        This is my stout go to yeast. It is dependable minimal off flavors and clean fermentation. This product along with Safale US-05 have pretty much converted me to a dry yeast junkie.
