A bottom-fermenting neutral lager strain that thrives across a wide temperature range, allowing for faster and warmer fermentations while preserving a clean and crisp flavour. M24 Versa Lager produces low levels of diacetyl and sulfur, ensuring a refined final product.
This yeast strain is reliable and as the name suggests, is remarkably versatile. It excels in beer styles where a clean fermentation is desired, particularly in Lagers or IPAs where you want the hops to be the star of show.
