A truly authentic strain for brewing Belgian dubbel or Belgian tripel. This strain produces a nice balance of complex fruity esters and phenolics, making it desirable for use in other Belgian style ales as well. A flocculent, true top cropping yeast (additional headspace is recommended), that will work over a broad temperature range. Makes a great Belgian style "house" strain. More temperature tolerant than some Belgian strains, this yeast can produce great results with a gradual temperature ramp over the first week of fermentation.
Use a blow over tube and not a gas lock.. Make sure the lid of the carboy is secure this yeast means business.. !!

Figured I would give it a try, big mistake
I have been home brewing for about 10 years. Not great but I am very familiar with process and necessities. Tried this yeast and it never developed. Followed everything as directed and made sure package "puffed" up but once added, it never took off. I am sure this is an exception but I will not give them a try again. Stick with the tried and true.
