Omega OYL-106 is versatile with a crisp, malty profile, light esters, and a wide fermentation range. This is thought to be the world’s most used lager strain and can produce a convincing lager at ale temperatures. Fermenting in the low temperature range (45 – 55° F), it maintains a more crisp profile. Temperatures higher in range (65 – 68° F) bring out slightly heightened esters. Rest for diacetyl.
