Sounded great till the last paragraph speaking of 500g commercially sized pitches. Can't tell if it is saying that is the only size available or not. I would like to try it on homebrew scale though

I look forward to trying this yeast.
Sounds like it might be 1968/wlp 002? If so, it's about time.[/quoteyes, those are said to be the Fuller's yeast, and the first post had a quote from John Keeling,the head Brewer at Fuller's. Pretty good bet that this is the dry equivalent.
I just saw this at my local hardware/homebrew shop. I'll be giving this a try tomorrow. If this tastes like 1968/002, then I will definitely be keeping a stash in my fridge to replace my S-04 supply.

The only place I see it even listed (Williams) won't have any until at least October 5.
