The industry standard for clean, crisp lager production. Ferments extremely clean with virtually no ester production at proper temperatures. Requires a mandatory diacetyl rest (60–65°F for 48–72 hrs) before crashing to eliminate any residual diacetyl. Reward for patience: a glass of straw-gold perfection.
