Saccharomyces pastorianus is a yeast used industrially for the production of lager beer, and was named in honour of Louis Pasteur by the German Max Reess in 1870. [1]

Lager Yeast, Saccharomyces pastorianus, is a bottom fermenting yeast used for brewing lager style beers.

Saccharomyces pastorianus is an allopolyploid yeast derived from S. cerevisiae and S. bayanus-like and the most common bottom-fermenting lager yeast. From: Beer in Health and Disease Prevention, 2009

A combination of biological and non-biological factors has led to the interspecific hybrid yeast species Saccharomyces pastorianus becoming one of the world's most important industrial organisms.

Lager yeast, known as Saccharomyces pastorianus or Saccharomyces carlsbergensis, runs the fermentation at cool temperatures (8–15 °C), and forms a cloudy mass (flocculates) on the bottom of the vessel (Bamforth, 2003). The beers so produced are called bottom fermented.
