Lallemand Novalager Modern Hybrid Lager Dried Yeast, 11g

Description Details Directions Lallemand NovaLager Modern Hybrid Lager yeast is a true bottom fermenting Saccharomyces pastorianus hybrid from the novel Group III lineage that has been selected to produce clean lager beers with distinct flavor characteristics and superior fermentation performance. It is a robust lager strain with ideal characteristics for lager beer production including fast fermentations and high attenuation. The distinct flavor profile is very clean while producing slight esters over a wide temperature range. Through expression of a β-glucosidase enzyme, Lallemand NovaLager can promote hop biotransformation and accentuate hop flavor and aroma. It was selected using classical and non-GMO breeding methods to obtain a hybrid of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Saccharomyces eubayanus that defines a novel Group III lager lineage that is distinct from any other traditional Saccharomyces pastorianus strains. This strain is a low diacetyl producer and utilizes patented technology from the University of California Davis to ensure that the strain will not produce hydrogen sulfide off-flavors thereby reducing the maturation time normally associated with lager beer production.
