Description

Urkel allows for a nice balance between hops and malt. This strain can produce sulfur aromas during fermentation, but it cleans up during lagering. Fermentation at the higher end of the range will produce a beer with minimal sulfur and a light ester profile with that classic Czech edge you are looking for.
