So i made a pils from a kit and was sent white labs kolch ale yeast. I found it odd since i thought a pilsener should be a lager ..right? Yet I fermented it hot like in the mid 80s by accident let it age for about 1 month and the sulfur taste went away. It was clear and smooth Pilsener like beer, so I want to make a Vienna Lager and I have no way of doing temp control and fermenting in the 50F's during summer or lagering. Is it possible or am I just setting myself up to fail by using Kolsch ale strain for a lager?
The vienna Lager is from Brewers Best kit never tried them before but i'm willing to try a commercial kit.
Its pretty late and i'm tired notice i posted this on extract kit and not yeast and fermenting. Please moderator feel free to remove or put it under different area. If not its cool just realized it was posted wrong,thank you.
