LalBrew NovaLager is a true bottom-fermenting Saccharomyces pastorianus hybrid (non-GMO), selected to produce clean lager-style beers with the optimal fermentation performance of ale yeast. It produces lager styles at higher fermentation temperatures, lower pitch rates, and faster fermentation times than traditional lagers. NovaLager produces a clean, unique lager profile with high attenuation and medium flocculation, and is a low producer of VDK/diacetyl, and will not produce hydrogen sulfide (H2S), leading to reduced maturation times associated with Lager beer production. Perfect for a range of lagers, NovaLager is a true game changer!
