Brewer notes
American Ale is a liquid ale culture from Wyeast (1056). Fermentation character can show clean notes. Useful for pale ales, porters, stouts, and barley wines. Reference guidance: attenuation guidance 73–77%, fermentation range about 16–22°C (60–72°F), alcohol tolerance around 10%. Treat temperature, attenuation and alcohol tolerance as strain guidance; wort composition, pitch health and fermentation management still affect the result.
