Hi Big D

Lat weekend Chiller and I made a German Pils. 100% Weyermann Pils and 100% Tettnang. The batch was split and 1/2 was pitched with Danish Lager, the other 1/2 Munich. I'll post some tasting notes when they're ready.

Cheers

Whitelabs 833 for malty lagers.
Don't mind the Wyeast Munich either.

wlp833, wlp800 are my faves so far... but ive heard good things about 2306 (or is it 2308) i might give that a go soon.
the 34/70 is easy to work with but pretty bland iMo, the 1056 of lager yeasts.
budejovice made sulfur bombs.
havent tried any others than those so far, ive only been lagering for a year.

Wyeast Czech Pils and Wyeast Bavarian Lager are my two faves. The Bav. Lager makes a great Bock as well as the other maltier lager styles.

I don't do too many lagers but FWIW I've used Wyeast 2308 Munich in an Oktoberfest which turned out pretty well and previously 2206 Bavarian which I was very happy with.
