Lager yeast, a bottom-fermenting yeast strain, has gained immense popularity among homebrewers and commercial breweries alike. Praised for its ability to produce clean and crisp lagers, this yeast strain imparts a distinctive flavor profile that has captivated beer enthusiasts worldwide. Originating from the colder regions of Europe, lager yeast thrives in cooler temperatures, typically between 46-55°F (8-13°C), and exhibits a slow and steady fermentation process. This extended fermentation period contributes to the lager's trademark smooth, well-balanced taste and clarity, a characteristic that sets it apart from its ale counterparts.
