Cattle dogs were used in Europe to round up the stray bulls, they have since
been replaced by topless rollerblader woman.  ;-)  Sorry, I just couldn't
help myself.

Betreff: [HBF] Ringwood Yeast (Wyeast 1187)

Does anyone know the origin of this yeast and where it gets it's name from?
In the Wyeast cattledog it says that it's of European origin, does it have 
anything to do with the Ringwood Brewery in Hampshire?  Do their beers 
exhibit the characteristics that Wyeast claims this yeast is capable of?

thanks folks,
Thomas.
