Notes

Recommended for Munich helles, Oktoberfest, malty lager.

Character: Clean malt-forward lager with a smooth finish.

A malt-forward Bavarian lager strain that ferments cold and finishes clean, aimed at helles and Oktoberfest where the malt should lead. Its modest 8% tolerance keeps it in standard-strength lager territory; for a strong lager pick a higher-tolerance strain.
