White Labs WLP820 Octoberfest/Märzen Lager
White Labs WLP820 Octoberfest/Märzen Lager
This yeast produces a very malty, bock like style. It does not finish as dry as WLP830. This yeast is much slower in the first generation than WLP830, so we encourage a larger starter to be used the first generation or schedule a longer lagering time.
Notes
Add Irish Moss at the 45 min. mark in the boil

Kegged this on 10/15/10 and chilled overnight to 40 degrees. Forced carbonated on 10/16/10 around 2pm. Later that night tried it with some friends. It's good but I think it will be really great in a couple of days.
