The Chinese word 'Beer' originates in yung foo, off the south coast of china.

The etymology of beer traces through Middle and Old English, then Proto-Germanic and Proto-IndoEuropean.
The original word bheus or beus referred to the yeast or other such fungi used in the brewing process. This became biuzan or buizaz, referring directly to the drink itself, and later beor, then bere which became the modern beer.

Lagers is normally a generalized term used for ANY beer. People use terms like "Ale" just to describe the way that it is brewed. Ales are brewed mainly from top fermented alcohol and typically taste alot more "hoppy." Lagers are usually stuff like, Budweiser, MGD ect ect. Which basically are "bottom" fermented beers, and usually need to be stored at certian temperatures in order to complete (always cold) and take ALOT longer to brew. Lagers are really a much lighter, cleaner tasting beer where as if you want to really taste the flavor of the hops, then id go Ale.
