That Omega DKO German lager is either Andechs or Augustiner. I’ve got a pouch of it that I got last Fall that’s at or near its expiration but haven’t had the chance to use it yet.
I did, however, just brew with WLP-808 “Mythical Hammer” mixed strain lager yeast. White Labs is silent on which strains were combined, but it was formulated to be used in pressurized fermentations. I brewed a Blonde Ale trying to replicate Salty Crew from Coronado Brewing in San Diego.
I fermented at 63F @ 1BAR, and it reached final gravity in five days. Clean as a whistle, hops and malts well balanced, and no hint of diacytl. I was very pleased with the performance of the yeast.
Brewed, fermented, crashed and kegged in ten days! You might want to use the WLP-808 unpressurized at low to mid-60sF for a Cali Common to produce some subtle esters.
Thread drift: how are the ‘Noles looking for this year? We only made it to one home game last year, but tailgated like rock stars!
