I think I have only used it once, but I got 81% AA.

It also dropped very clear.

I used Wyeast 1275 a few times in a British Brown Ale, the last time in 2019.  Mash efficiency was in the high 80’s each time, fermentation started off strongly in less than half a day and slowed down to almost no airlock activity after 3 days.  Fermented at 67 degrees; gravities were on the money.  I liked it and would use it again.

In comparison, I used WLP-013 London Ale in my last batch of brown ale.  I used it because I couldn’t get any 1275 at the time.  The mash efficiency was 81% and the final gravity was off by only 1 point.  It started slightly slower, and was essentially done fermenting in a week.  Fermented at 66 degrees.  I’d use the Thames Valley next time.
