WLP940 Mexican Lager Yeast

Description

White Labs WLP940 Mexican Lager Yeast produces authentic Mexican lager character popular in beers like Dos Equis and Negra Modelo.

Slightly lower attenuation than American lager yeasts leaves more body and residual sweetness. Clean fermentation with minimal sulfur or diacetyl. Ideal for Mexican Lager, Vienna Lager, Amber Lager, Dark Lager. Perfect for brewers crafting Vienna-style Mexican lagers where malt sweetness balances crisp lager character. Authentic choice for south-of-the-border lager styles.
