JY278 - Philly Lager

This strain is a time capsule of pre-Prohibition craftsmanship, delivering a clean, malty backbone with a touch of rustic charm. Expect a smooth, approachable finish with delicate fruit esters—think apple and pear—layered over a subtle bready malt character. It’s the yeast for reviving classic American lagers, cream ales, or even a bold steam beer with Philly swagger.

Workhorse yeast that thrives under pressure, perfect for brewers who want reliability without fuss. Flocculates well.
