Not sure, but I have found it takes a bit longer to get going. Also usually makes a better finished product.

The yeast that comes with blue moutain lager seems to be a true lager yeast as I brewed it at approx 12-15 degrees with no probs and it produced pretty good results.

it's strange about the saaz pilsner as the one's I have done (at least 3 or 4 to date) had the lager yeast?

The golden saaz that I picked up the other day was an ale yeast too - I wasn't sure of the quality so I bin'd it and used the brewcellar Euro lager yeast.
