Williams Warn American Lager 23/25 Litre Kit

A refreshing American Lager for those who appreciate one of the world’s most popular beer styles.

Our American Lager is straw-coloured in appearance with a low bitterness. It is crisp, dry and thirst-stopping. The lager yeast employed will give some slightly fruity notes to add a pinch of character. The goal is a light-tasting beer with low levels of malt, hop and yeast character in perfect balance.

The yeast supplied is an 11g pack of Fermentis S-23 lager yeast.

Original Gravity of 1.045 (11.25°P), fermented to a Final Gravity of about 1.009 (2.3°P), resulting in 4.8% alcohol by volume, 13 Bitterness Units and 3 SRM/6 EBC colour.

Ferment at 15°C/59°F for 3 days and then increase to 18°C/64°F for a diacetyl rest to complete fermentation after another 3 days. Cooling can be put on at Day 6 when the SG should be about 1.009.

Note: This kit contains a "Summer Ale" extract can, as supplied by Williams Warn for this recipe. The difference between the American Lager kit and the Summer Ale kit is the yeast that is supplied with each kit.
