Danish Lager yeast is a good choice to use on Dortmund Export lagers and Munich Helles, as well as a number of American style lagers. It can ferment slightly cooler than some lager strains, and lower attenuation means a longer conditioning phase can be utilized to further clear beer. However, it is known to create excellent beers that are crisp and dry on the tongue, rounded and smooth in the mouth, with a relative hop-forwardness. A good yeast that is often underutilized by brewers...give it a try!
