Why is Isar Lager becoming the “house strain” for so many breweries?
In this episode, we dig into what we learned from 28 breweries fermenting with Isar Lager. From fermentation speed to nutrient use, malt choice, oxygenation, and yeast storage, we share surprising insights that help brewers fine-tune their process. Plus: how Isar stacks up against the world-famous 34/70, and why nutrients like Yeast Lightning can be game-changers for consistent fermentations.
Whether you’re running ultra-cold ferments, dialling in a Czech Pils, or just want faster turnarounds, this data-driven deep dive will help you unlock the clean, malt-forward character Isar Lager is known for.
