Brewer notes

Urquell Lager is a liquid lager culture from Wyeast (2001). Fermentation character can show neutral, floral, clean, and fruity notes. Useful for pilsners and milds. Reference guidance: attenuation guidance 72–76%, fermentation range about 9–14°C (48–58°F), alcohol tolerance around 8%. Treat temperature, attenuation and alcohol tolerance as strain guidance; wort composition, pitch health and fermentation management still affect the result.
