Description

Versatile, crisp, malty profile, light esters and a wide fermentation range. This is thought to be the world’s most used lager strain and can produce a convincing lager at ale temperatures. Fermenting in the low temperature range (45 – 55° F), it maintains a more crisp profile. Temperatures higher in range (65 – 68° F) bring out slightly heightened esters. Rest for diacetyl.

Footnotes

  • * Rough estimate based on yeast form
  • ** Hazy and thiolized are based on research from Omega Labs
  • *** Origins are often unreliable (hearsay) and difficult to determine
