A Guide to Beer Types

Ales

Brewed with top fermenting yeast at cellar temperature, ales are fuller-bodied, and have nuances of fruit or spice and a pleasantly hoppy finish. Generally robust and complex with a variety of fruit and malt aromas, ales come in many varieties. They include Bitters, Milds, Pale Ales, Nut Browns, etc.

Ales are often darker than lagers, ranging from rich gold to reddish amber. Top fermenting, and more hops gives these beers a distinctive fruitfulness, acidity, and pleasantly bitter seasoning.

Lagers

Lager originates from the German word lagern, meaning to store. This refers to the method of storing it for several months in near-freezing temperatures. Crisp and refreshing with a smooth finish from longer aging, lagers are the world’s most popular beer.

Malts

Generally dark and sweeter in flavor, malts contain hints of caramel, toffee, and a variety of nuts. They can be light to full-bodied.

Stouts & Porters

Porter is a dark, almost black, fruity-dry, top fermenting drink. An ale, porter is brewed with a combination of roasted malt to impart flavor, color, and aroma. Stout is also a black, roast brew made by top fermentation.

Stout, not as sweet to the taste, features a rich, creamy head and is flavored and colored by barley. Stouts often use a portion of unmalted roasted barley to develop a dark, slightly astringent, coffee-like character.
