YF-304 is one of the most robust lager yeasts, excelling in strong, high-alcohol beers such as Bock styles. It tolerates higher alcohol levels while maintaining a malty aftertaste despite its high attenuation. Brewers are advised to perform a diacetyl rest at elevated temperatures to ensure a polished finish. This yeast balances strength with drinkability, producing bold, flavorful lagers with clarity and depth. Its reliability and resilience make it ideal for demanding brewing applications.
