Imperial Yeast: G02 Kaiser

Traditional Alt yeast strain. However, this German ale strain can do just about anything.

Kaiser is ready to produce an array of German-style beers. It will keep the beer clean and allow the delicate malt flavors and aromas to shine through. Characteristics of this strain make it a good choice for traditional Berliner Weisse fermentations. Kaiser is a low flocking strain, so expect long clarification times, but very low diacetyl levels.
