So I'm looking to make The Kaiser Imperial Oktoberfest that Avery made available.

When I search Weihenstephan yeast, I come up with WY-3068, a German wheat beer yeast. Is that what I am supposed to use??

Oh nice, I've used 34/70 before and liked it (imperial pilsner). We'll see how this Oktoberfest turns out in a few months.
