Blitz Lager Fast Lager Dry Yeast (11g / 22L) | WHC Labs

$7.00

Blitz Lager is a modern, high-performance dry yeast designed to produce clean, crisp lager-style beers without the long fermentation times or strict cold temperature control traditionally required for lagers.

This strain delivers the smooth, refined character of classic lagers while fermenting comfortably at ale temperatures, making it ideal for homebrewers and small breweries looking for speed, efficiency, and consistency without sacrificing flavour.

Each sachet contains 11 grams of yeast, suitable for fermenting approximately 22 litres of wort under standard conditions. This makes Blitz Lager a convenient, single-pitch solution for typical homebrew batch sizes.

Blitz Lager ferments cleanly at higher temperatures, producing a balanced profile with a soft malt backbone and a crisp, refreshing finish. Strong flocculation helps the yeast settle quickly after fermentation, reducing clarification and conditioning time.

Whether you’re brewing a German-style Pilsner, a Helles, a Kölsch-style beer, or even a clean IPA, Blitz Lager delivers reliable, repeatable results with a fast turnaround.
