Making beer-main types of beer

What the chart here does, in a big census it separates out the two main distinctions in types of beer namely Ales and Lagers or the distinctions between Ales and Lagers are that Ales are typically brewed of typically fermented in higher temperatures using a certain type of yeast that can accommodate those higher temperatures, they usually ferment faster and the particular strain of yeast usually ferments from the top of the worth on down.

Whereas Lagers usually fermented colder temperatures and take longer to ferment and the strain of yeast basically is a bottom fermenting strain of yeast, ferments from the bottom of the worth on up through the worth until it is all fermented.

It then subdivides those different styles in to a number of different types of Ales, and a number of different types of Lagers. It also subdivides based on strength going horizontally and it also seems to cluster the different beers into their geographic background or history relocation. So we have for example the Pale Ale together next to all the bidders, which are also English Ales next to the Scottish Ales. Then we move to the darker beers and also distinguishes based on color the wheat beers on the left side typically the lightest in color onto the stouts on the right hand side which are the darkest in color.

Where we go to the Lagers, similar type of arrangement we have pilsners, which are typically the lightest type of Lagers onto a whole slew of American of American style Lagers which of a style of beer that in the United States kind to broke away from European traditions number of years ago in to German Lagers etcetera.

At the bottom is a little cluster of your really far out beers, beers that are brewed let us say at Ale temperatures but with Lager yeast or Lager temperatures. But with Ale yeast sort of mix styles as they call it, beers that are that can run the gamete from barley wines which can have 12 - 13% alcohol down to gremials, which are much lighter.

If you are on the chart, it does give you alcohol by volume, okay so that is the number down here, so as you can see, some of the highest alcohol beers rush is imperial stat is 12% beer. Barley wine 12% and I have seen them go higher than that, the Pale Ale that were going to be brewing today comes in four and a half to five and a half percent. Our Pale Ale actually comes in five%, as I point you down here because we make the style of Pale Ale that we make is very much of an American Pale Ale.
