JY337 - Urs Lager

Very flocculant lager strain originating from a small microbrewery in Germany. Slow but steady in fermentation. Dropping bright, and attenuating well. The strain produces a touch of sweetness without being cloying. Its all yeast character. Very well suited for hop-flavor forward lagers and light lagers that benefit from a touch of sweetness (think Asian-style lager). Flocculates well. 

This strain displays some thiolizing activity that comes through when precursors are present, but do not worry: this strain is not genetically modified and the effect is subtle (so no overly sulfurous nose and taste!).
