Description

A Bamberg strain from a brewery known for smoked malt beers. It deliberately underattenuates compared with other lager yeasts, with a published floor as low as 60 percent, leaving body and residual sweetness for the rauchmalt character to sit on. Choose it when you want the smoke supported rather than stripped out.
