I'm going to do an experiment this Saturday. I am going to brew a Czech Pilsner, but ferment cool with Pacman. I don't have proper lagering equipment yet, but I am dying to brew something in this style. I have had great luck with the Pacman yeast so far. If nothing else, I should have a really nice blond ale.
Here is my recipe.
