turboyeast

I understand it's a mixture of high-alcohol-tolerant yeast and yeast nutrients, designed to get the maximum quantity of alcohol as quickly as possible. Try it if you like, but I've got a vague and unfounded suspicion the resulting beer will not win many taste awards.

I tasted some sugar (sucrose) fermented with it to about 18-20% abv, tasted pretty nutral, a little like saky (some residual sweetness) but pretty flavourless. Of course it would get even more neutral once you distill it (then you can add flavourings afterwards).

I've heard complaints that one of the competitor brands tasted "yeasty". The turboyeast seems to be the most popular at my LHBS.

Oops i ws mistaken the one that was considered good was the turbo pure

48 hour had good reviews by other customers. There was a brand called turboyeast.. but it was not as popular.
