I purchased a can of Imperial Yeast due to the excellent cell count and I loved the fact that you could recycle the packaging, rather than tossing the plastic packaging of competitors' products. After a slow start to fermentation I contacted Imperial and spoke to Casey who provided the best customer service I have received in some time. She was very pleasant and engaging to speak with and I could tell she was passionate about brewing. She proved to me that they stand by their products and will make it right if there are any issues whatsoever. My fermentation is now rocking and rolling and I could not be more pleased.
