Bohemian Lager is one of our favorite lager strains. It is malty with a crisp bite to it that serves well in the production of a wide range of lagers, from light European and American style Pilsners to rich, malty Bock beers. This strain exhibits a slightly pronounced ester profile. It does very well on all lagers at its recommended temperature range, but it can also be fermented warmer to produce California Common beers and other styles as well. Wyeast recommends utilizing a diacetyl rest with this strain in order to produce as clean a beer as possible.
