Anyone have any experience with this yeast?
Thinking of using it for a Vienna lager next weekend.

Never used it, but I don't think I'd drink something called Diamond Lager  ;D

Is it new? I only spotted it the other day.

I used for the first time to brew a Vienna lager from Greg Hughes book and bottled a few days ago and tasted fantastic for my first attempt at brewing a lager.
Just rehydrate prior to pitching.

Only available to home brewers recently.

Do you know any commercial lagers that use it? It sounds very neutral from the description
