"Good yeast, used a number of times at 10 - 12 degrees, always works well."
"Brewed already and went off well, fermented out nicely. Schlenkerla Rauch Marzen attempt."
"Beautiful"
"I used 2 packets of W-34/70 in a Munich Helles Lager and fermented at 13. 5c for just under 3 weeks. It provided a strong and healthy fermentation. The larger was very clean with no off-flavours. I will use this again for sure, its easy to manage the temp and any concerns I had about brewing a lager were not an issue. I understand it can be fermented with confidence up to 15c, possibly even higher at 18c. Everyone enjoyed this beer at our Oktoberfest party. I will use in the future when I next brew a lager."
"Makes amazing crystal clear largers! Everything they say it is !!"

"the best dry lager yeast around"
"Nice for lager or cold ipa"
"I love how 34/70 works in my lagers. Clean and a great progression through the fermentation."
"if you want results this is my go too"
