fruitiness and phenolic characteristics dominate the flavor profile.
Some sulfur is produced during fermentation, which will dissipate
following the end of fermentation.

"Great attenuation! "
By: Tony V.
Date: March 29, 2007
Beers brewed: Belgian Golden Ale
Comments: Clean profile for a Belgian Yeast especially if
fermentation is started in the low to mid 60's and allowed to rise
gradually rise to the low 70's. Great attenuation! I got almost
90%attenuation. Needs awhile to clear or lager for a few weeks. One
of my favorites!
"Cleaner flavor profile .. "
By: Jim Givens
Date: Feb. 5, 2007
Beers brewed: Tripel, dubbel, strong ale, holiday ale
Comments: Golden Ale WLP570 yeast ferments out slightly
acidic (champagne-like) with a cleaner flavor profile than other
Belgian types I have tried. I have used this yeast at lower
temperatures (45-50 degrees F) with OK results. If you like Belgian
beers but hate the high phenolic and quirky weirdness that can
sometimes dominate other Belgian types, you’ll like this
yeast.
