Clean and clear! Czech Budejovice Lager Yeast from White Labs is a strain of lager yeast from south of the Czech republic. A medium attenuating and flocculating yeast, it produces dry lagers with very little diacetyl. This makes it a great strain for use in making classic crisp lagers, such as Bohemian style pilsners, Czech pilsners, classic American pilsners, and according to White Labs, this strain makes a great German Doppelbock as well! It can be used on a wide variety of lagers as well. It comes highly recommended by many brewers who use it, favoring it as their preferred lager yeast.

ICE PACK INCLUDED
We include complimentary ice packs with ALL liquid yeast orders (if required), but cannot guarantee that the ice packs will stay cold during transit, and thus the yeast can potentially be exposed to hot temperatures. We highly recommend ordering dry yeast during the hot summer months or if you are ordering from a warmer climate. Many times during the winter an ice pack is not needed so we make the determination based on current temperatures and the destination!
