Want to make great malt-driven lagers with a yeast that produces very little sulfur or diacetyl during fermentation? How about a lager yeast that has relatively high fermentation temperatures and produces lagers with a rich malt quality? Wyeast's Munich II Lager yeast, available as part of their Private Collection series, might just be the yeast you are looking for! Great in a wide range of malt-forward continental European lagers, Wyeast claims that Munich Lager II yeast comes "from a famous brewery." While these assumed origins are not shared publicly, the quality of the beers that are produced with this strain are evidence that this is most likely gospel.
Beer Styles: Perfect for festbiers such as Oktoberfest and Marzens, it also does well on bocks of all kinds, as well as Munich dunkels and schwarzbiers.
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!
