My us pales have all cleared within 4-5 days in the bottle and pour clear too.

US pale: Used this in an out of date Wilkos golden ale kit dry hopped with 100g of Azacca. Been bottled for 2 weeks. Fermented well but takes an age to clear in the bottle and hasn't packed solid yet. Pours cloudy but tastes clean with fruity hops. I think this will be good in a month or so if it packs at the bottom of the bottle.

And mine. In fact, CML yeasts consistently clear faster than any other I've used.
I've found the CML real ale yeast really vigorous, fermenting quickly even in a garage where the brew temp at one point dropped down to 17 degrees for a bit. Its cleared in the barrel in 2 weeks, but initially has a really strong, almost sour, yeast taste going on. This has now almost totally abated, so quite impressed. Hides the hops a bit, but does allow the malt to shine through. Unfortunately, the brew I've used it on is a bit bland and *meh*, but that's a different story.
Nor mine!:nono::nono:Mozza are you doing kits or ag or extract? None of my ag brews with CML have had any weird taste...
So since there is currently no CML lager yeast, which CML yeast would you use if you wanted to brew a lager at 12/13*C, and is one packet enough if you are brewing 20 ish litres?
Or would you just use one of their yeasts and ferment at ale temperatures?
Or would you look elsewhere for a 'proper' lager yeast ?
