Generally Ice beer refers to a beer that has been strengthened by freezing some of the water out, concentrating the remainder. A lot of Canadian breweries have been doing this for a long time, and in Germany it's often done to bock beers, making a style called eisbock. more detail: Ethanol, the alcohol that you drink in beer, freezes at a very low temperature compared to water. So if you take a beer, lower it to below 32 degrees f, and remove the solid ice that forms, what remains will be more alcoholic than what you started with.
Yes.
IPA and lager are two different types of beer. IPA stands for India Pale Ale and is known for its strong hoppy flavor and higher alcohol content. Lager, on the other hand, is a type of beer that is fermented and conditioned at low temperatures, resulting in a cleaner and crisper taste. In summary, the main difference between IPA and lager lies in their flavor profiles and brewing processes.
All lagers are beers, but not all beers are lagers. In other words, lager is a type of beer. The other general category of beer is ale.A better question would have been, "What's the difference between ale and lager?" And come to think of it, that question has been asked here. See the related question.
The main differences between ale and lager production are in temperature and type of yeast used. Lager is fermented at a lower temperature than ale and uses a bottom fermenting yeast whereas ale uses a top fermenting yeast.
True Lager is distinguished from ale by its yeast. Lager yeast ferments at lower temperatures and flocculates on the bottom of the fermenting vessel, while ale yeast ferments at higher temperatures and settles on the tops of fermentation tanks.
That would be called a crystal. Any atomic structure that is "regular" is considered a crystal.
Lager is a type of beer that has been fermented using yeast that prefers a cooler temperature than ale yeast. It is made of the same ingredients as beer, namely barley, water, hops, and yeast. The only difference between Lager and Ale is the type of yeast used and the temperatures that it is fermented at. Lagers are a "bottom fermenting" beer that prefers cooler temperatures. Ales are "top fermenting" beers that prefer warmer temperatures.
a Pilsner is actually a type of Lager. Lager is a generic category that includes beers that are brewed with bottom fermenting yeast that ferments at cooler temperatures. Pilsner is a type of Lager that is yellow/golden in color with a white frothy head, generally lighter in body, and has a crisp/dry finish. Pilsners usually come in around 4-5% ABV
The word comes from German as Lager-Bier meaning beer brewed for keeping. (the word lager meaning storehouse and bier for beer) It can be stored for between six weeks and six months
The typical IBU range for a lager is between 8 to 20 International Bitterness Units.
