Lager / Pilsner
The world’s most popular beer category, lagers are brewed using much lighter malt and a slower, “cleaner” yeast than ales. Traditionally they would be stored, or lagered, at lower temperatures for months before they were consumed. Most commercially produced lagers nowadays are speed-brewed in huge factories, but both traditional European breweries and modern craft breweries are staying true to traditional methods of lager brewing. Many sub-styles of lager also exist, from light and crisp Munich-Style Helles to herbal North German Pilsner, or unfiltered, lower-carbonation Kellerbiers. Other styles include those like Früh Kölsch, a lager from Cologne brewed with top-fermenting ale yeast for a fruitier flavour; dark, roasty Schwarzbiers and Munich Dunkels; and modern, hybrid styles like Pilsners.
