Species: Saccharomyces pastorianus
Profile: Originating from the home of great Pilsners in the Czech Republic, this classic strain will finish dry and malty. It is the perfect choice for Bohemian-style Pilsners. Sulfur produced during fermentation can be reduced with warmer fermentation temperatures 58 °F (14 °C) and will dissipate with conditioning.
Czech/pilsner lager options. W-34/70 is a practical dry lager alternative with a different flavor balance. Compare attenuation, fermentation temperature, alcohol tolerance and the package pitching guidance before switching; these are recipe alternatives, not a claim that the cultures are identical.
