L32 Magnitude, is a high-performance Bavarian lager yeast strain from Imperial Yeast, engineered for bold, malt-forward high-gravity lagers. It delivers a clean, balanced profile that allows complex malt bills to shine, especially in rich styles like Doppelbock, Dunkel, and Eisbock. Its performance and neutrality in high-gravity applications make it a go-to when you want the malt recipe, not the yeast, to dominate.
Flavor & Style Suitability
Magnitude’s clean character prevents harshness, even in strong beers, letting deep malt complexity—bready, toasty, Maillard, dark malt notes—take center stage. Use it in:
- Dunkel — rich, rounded, malty, with depth yet drinkable
- Doppelbock — big, toasty, full-bodied, but smooth
- Eisbock — concentrated, warming, full-bodied, without burning alcohol characters
