US-05 US Ale Yeast

US-05 is a ready to pitch dry American Ale yeast. It produces well balanced beers with low diacetyl and a very clean, crisp end palate. With low to medium sediment, and medium final gravities, this yeast is a perfect selection for many ale styles. 

We find that US-05 tends to be better suited for malt forward beers. For hoppier beers, we recommend using S-04. That yeast really brings out the fruit and citrus from the big American hops.
