LAGERS.The word Lager comes from the German “Lagern,” which means to store. In the early days of Lager brewing, many brewers would store their Bier through the summer in the caves of the Bavarian Alps. These caves were cooled with blocks of ice taken from frozen lakes in the winter months. The long maturation over the summer let the yeast settle to the bottom and left the Bier with a cleaner taste and paler colour than other Biers of the time. These Bavarian Lagers were much darker than the golden Lagers that dominate the market today. These dark brown or black Lagers, known as Dunkel or Dunkles, are still produced in Bavaria today. Today, Lagers come in all shapes and sizes, from crisp, golden Pilsners to dark, roasted Dunkels.

BLONDE LAGERS.in the early 19th century, Bavarian brewers began experimenting with brewing techniques that involved storing their Biers in cold Bier cellars for prolonged periods, using bottom-fermenting yeast. After an initial fermentation, the Bier would be given a second lagering period at a low temperature, and then would be stored in refrigerated Bier cellars. They could be kept for a few weeks or several months, during which time the drink would mellow and clear.

HELLES.Pronounced “hell-us”, also known as “hell.” hell is the german adjective for “light”, and helles refers to “a light one.” unlike north America, this does not refer to calories or alcohol strength. helles refers to the colour of the the Bier only. if there is one Bier style that typifies the greatness of Bavarian beer-making, it is this straw-blond lager. Averaging 4.7-5.4% ABV, this style is also referred to as “Munich Original Lager.” Born between 1894 and 1895, the helles was Bavaria’s answer to the Bohemian Pilsner. contrary to the Pilsner, helles has almost no up-front bitterness, but is accented with a subtle malt character. Lingering notes of hops are present on the palate and nose, and the finish of this beer style is never harsh, making it a great session lager made purely of Bier’s four core ingredients (water, hops, malt, and yeast).



dark LAGERS.Before the invention of modern kilning techniques all Biers were dark… even Lagers. These traditional Biers have been replaced in many parts of the world with their more modern cousins, Blonde or Amber Lagers, but still have a significant place in the hearts of many Bier drinkers in the czech republic and germany. This classic style is enjoying a renaissance in the hands of many north American craft brewers. These Biers are easy drinking and refined, with a slightly sweet, roasted nuttiness.

amber LAGERS.The Amber Lager was first introduced around 1840 in Vienna Austria by Anton dreher, the renowned brewer of the Schwechat Brewery. he lightly roasted a new type of malt in his kilns and was rewarded with an elegantly reddish new Bier style that came to be known as Vienna Lager. This technique was soon adopted by his friend and fellow brewer gabriel Sedelmayr Jr. of the Spatan Brewery in Munich and thus the Märzen, or March Bier, style was born. in modern times, Amber Lagers are brewed all over the world, by brewers following the blueprint of this classic style to create wonderfully sophisticated Biers full of toasted bread and caramel notes.

ALES.Although the first incident of fermentation is lost to the pages of history, our favourite tale of Bier’s beginnings is as follows: After baking bread, a young woman got caught in a rainstorm and abandoned her loaf to the elements. When the woman returned after the storm, she found the bread soaked in water. After tasting the water-soaked bread, a mild sense of “happiness” came over her — and the rest is brewing history. One of the two main families of Bier, Ales have been around much longer than their Lager counterparts. Ales are fermented with a top-fermenting yeast strain that usually performs well at warmer temperatures. This made Ale ideal for brewing in the days before refrigeration. Ales tend to be more complex and bolder than Lagers, and are credited with starting the craft Bier movement.

BLOND ALES. Blond Ale is a wide category that encompasses both easy drinking moderate-alcohol Biers, and big bold high-alcohol brews. Many Blond Ales were brewed to compete with Pilsners and other Lagers, while the higher ABV Biers were often also alternatives to gin, which was heavily taxed in Belgium. These Biers are as varied as the brewers that produce them.

FARMHOUSE / Saison Ale. There are a number of stories about where the farmhouse/Saison style came from, many claiming that Saisons originated with the farmhouse brewers of Southern Belgium. These Biers come from a time when farmhands were frequently given a daily ration of Bier to help them through the day’s hard labour. dry, spicy, and refreshing, this formerly obscure classic style has recently attained a surge of popularity in north America and is now produced by many brewers in the united States and canada.



TRIPELS.The Tripel style as we know it today can be attributed to the westmalle Trappist Abbey in Belgium. Both Trappist and other monastic brewers had been producing high-quality Biers for years, but it wasn’t until after the Second world war that the abbey of westmalle produced this golden, fruity, extremely dry elixir to try to compete with growing popularity of Pilsner and Pale Ale in Belgium. This style has since been taken up by many other Belgian brewers, as well as craft brewers in north America. Triples are refined but bold Biers that pack a punch both in flavour and alcohol content.

PALE/AMBER ALES.Like many Bier styles, Pale Ale resulted from an innovation in brewing technology. The brewers in Burton-on-Trent in england were looking for a way to produce a more consistent and paler Bier. The kilns of the time used wood, which was difficult to control and often resulted in dark roasted or even scorched barley. They found that coke, a processed form of coal that burns hot and steady, gave them the desired effect — a clear, amber or copper-coloured Ale.

STOUTS / PORTERS / BROWN ALES.The name Porter was first used in the 18th century because of this style of Bier’s popularity with dock and hotel porters. Originally created from a blend of Brown Ale, Pale Ale and “stale,” or well-matured Brown Ale, Porter has gone through many style and colour transitions over the years but has come to be known as a dark brown to black Bier with a nice roasted malt character. The term Stout was applied to stronger, darker versions. Stout flooded into ireland from London and Bristol when a dublin brewer named Arthur guinness decided to fashion his own interpretation by blending Porter with some unmalted roasted barley, and in so doing produced a style known as dry irish Stout.

WHEAT BIERS.Wheat Biers are traditionally part of the Ale family, but unlike most other Biers, they have a grain base largely made up of malted and or unmalted wheat. Fermented with specific strains of Wheat Bier yeast, these Biers can range from pale, light and fruity, to dark, bold and spicy.

WITBIERs. witbiers are usually brewed with a minimum of 30% malted wheat. The rest of the malt bill can include barley, malted and unmalted wheat. They are almost always bottle-conditioned. Orange peel and coriander are staple ingredients, to which brewers often add a secret spice.

CIDERs.Apple trees were growing in the uK well before the romans came, but they were the ones who introduced organized cultivation. cider was produced in substantial quantities on farms across england and it became customary in the 18th century to pay a portion of a farm labourer’s daily wage in cider. A typical allowance on a farm was three to four pints per day. Labourers were rated by the amount they drank; a two-gallon-a-day man was considered worth the extra he drank!

ginger Bier.ginger Bier has been brewed in england since Victorian times. True ginger Bier is a mixture of sugar, ginger, often lemon juice, and a bacterial agent called ginger Bier Plant, which ferments the mixture. Production of ginger Bier peaked in the early 20th century, but fell drastically during the Second world war. There are still a few traditional ginger Bier producers in the world, but what most people know as ginger Bier or ginger Ale is just flavoured soda that is artificially carbonated. ginger Bier can be either alcoholic or alcohol free.

Trappist Ales.Although brewing was once commonplace at abbeys across Europe, today there remain but a handful of these monastic breweries. The most famous are the celebrated Trappist breweries of Belgium and the Netherlands – Achel, Chimay, Orval, Rochefort, Westmalle, Westvleteren and La Trappe. While the size of the breweries and the types of Ales produced vary dramatically from abbey to abbey, each one must meet stringent criteria in order to maintain its Trappist designation.

1. The Bier must be brewed within the walls of a Trappist abbey, by or under control of Trappist monks.

2. The brewery, the choices of brewing, and the commercial orientations must depend on the monastic community.

dUBBELs “Double” Bier. Dubbels are a strong brown Ale with low bitterness, a heavy body and a malty, nutty finish. These Biers have an ABV of 6.5% to 8%, a colour that runs the range from dark amber to copper and bitterness from 15 to 25 IBUs.

STRONG DARK biers Most Biers in this style range from 8% to 11% ABV and are deep amber to copper-brown in colour. These Biers are dark and complex, with a pronounced richness and a low bitterness of about 20 to 35 IBUs.

TRIPELs “Triple” Bier. Tripels run from 7.5% to 9% alcohol by volume, and are brewed with high carbonation and high attenuation yeasts to reduce the taste of alcohol. Colour runs lighter than Dubbels and bitterness ranges from 20 to 40 IBUs, though most Tripels have greater than 30 IBUs.


QUADRUPELs.Inspired by the Trappist brewers of Belgium, a Quadrupel is a Belgian-style Ale of great strength with bolder flavour compared to its Dubbel and Tripel sister styles. Typically a dark creation that ranges within the deep red, brown and garnet hues. Full bodied with a rich malty palate. Sweet with low bitterness and an ABV range of 9% to 13%.

LAMBICs. Brewed in the Zenne Valley of Belgium, Lambics are Biers brewed through spontaneous fermentation thanks to the presence of a specific wild yeast. Probably the oldest recognizable style of Bier, they date back to 1559. Lambics are loved by connoisseurs but an acquired taste for many, as the wild yeast gives them tart, acidic qualities that make them unlike most other Biers. Lambic-style Biers can take years of aging and careful blending of multiple batches before they’re ready to drink. Lambic can be drunk direct from the barrel, but usually it is used as base for these six other Biers (geuze, faro, Kriek, framboise, Pêcheresse and cassis).

Radlers.radler, which means “cyclist” in german, was invented on a hot summer day in June 1922, when a local innkeeper found his Bier garden (the Kugler Alm) inundated with 13,000 cyclists. when supplies started running low, Kugler decided to stretch what was left by mixing the remaining Bier with a poorly selling lemon soda in a 50:50 ratio. radler was born.

BIER TERMS.ABV — ABV or Alcohol by Volume denotes alcohol content.

Ale — One of the two main families of Bier; Ales are top-fermented at warmer temperatures and require less conditioning time than Lagers.

Belgian-Style Abbey Ale — Inspired by Trappist breweries, Abbey Ales come in many styles, and are characterized by bold flavours with alcohol by volume ranging from 6% to 12%.

Bock — Germanic term for strong Bier. Usually dark, Bock can also be used to describe strong Lagers and Weissbiers.

Bottle Fermentation — This process is also known as bottle conditioning. These Ales are bottled with live yeast and sugar to produce a final fermentation. Typically, but not always, this produces a stronger, more flavourful Bier.

Doppelbock (Doppel=Double. Bock=Strong.) — These “double strong” Biers are usually quite malty in flavour, have immense complexity, and have an ABV of 7% to 10%.

Dubbel — A Belgian-style Ale that is rich and malty with spicy and dark fruit aromas. Flavours are often sweet in the finish. This Bier usually has a relatively high alcohol content of 6% to 9%.

Eisbock — This style is created by partially freezing a Doppelbock and removing the ice to concentrate the flavour and alcohol content, which ranges from 9% to 20%.

Farmhouse Ale/Saison — Historically produced in the winter months for consumption in the summer. This style was popularized by farmers along the borders joining France and Belgium, who used the “last cut” from the final harvest. A very complex style of Ale with fruity aromas and flavours, yeasty undertones and moderate tartness. Not long ago this was an endangered style, but it is now seeing a revival thanks to Belgian and North American brewers.

Fruit Bier — Any Bier flavoured with fruit, fruit syrup or fruit extract.

Grand Cru — French for “Great Growth.” Brewers use the best possible ingredients for what is often a brewery’s signature Bier, produced only in small batches for limited release.

Hefeweizen (See also Wheat Bier ) — A Bavarian style of Wheat Bier. The prefix “Hefe” means “with yeast,” and so it is normal for a Hefeweizen to appear cloudy. This Bier is characterized by the family of Bavarian yeasts that yield clovey, spicy banana aromas and flavours. Also known as Weissbier or “White Bier” – White being an international brewing term denoting Biers brewed from wheat. Weizen often, but not always, means that the Bier has been filtered.

Helles (Hell-Us) — Hell is the German word for “light,” and refers to the light colour of this Bavarian style lager.

Hops — The cone of the plant Humulus lupulus, originally added to Bier for its preservative effect. Today it is used mainly for bitterness and aroma. There are numerous varieties of hops used nowaday.

India Pale Ale (IPA) (See also Pale Ale ) — Developed to withstand the sea voyage from Britain to India, IPAs are pale or light amber in colour with elevated levels of hops.

India Pale Lager (IPL) — Rather than an Ale yeast, a Lager yeast is used for fermentation, giving the Bier a cleaner, smoother, crisp finish.

India Style Session Ale (ISA) — A new Bier style that retains all the IBU power but with a lower ABV. ISA are kettle-hopped (for bitterness up front) and dry-hopped (for flavour and aroma after the boil) using quantities and varieties similar to those in a standard American IPA. The ISA achieves a good flavour balance as well as a low ABV that ranges between 4.2% and 4.5%.

Kölsch — Kölsch is the local brewing style of Cologne, Germany. This Bier’s unique style is achieved through its brewing process. It is first top-fermented and then cold-conditioned. This style is often known as Lagered Ale.

Lager — Along with Ale, Lager is one of the two main styles of Bier. It is bottom-fermented and requires greater conditioning time than Ales. Lagering refers to the process by which Biers are fermented and conditioned at cooler temperatures to increase drinkability.

Lambic — Spontaneously fermented Bier from Belgium. Lambic is fermented with wild yeasts and then aged in wood for up to three years. Left unsweetened, Lambics are typically complex, tart and aggressive in flavour. Lambics can be served “straight”


while still young, blended and/or bottle-conditioned to create Gueuze, or refermented with fruit. In the latter case, the traditional Biers are known as Kriek (cherries) and Framboise (raspberries). Very little Bier in the Lambic style is produced outside of Belgium, but it is becoming an increasingly popular trend in North America. True Lambics come only from the Senne Valley in Belgium.

Malt — A foundation ingredient in Bier in which barley (and/or adjuncts) is steeped in water, germinated and then kilned during the brewing process.

Mash/Mashing — A stage in the brewing process in which barley (or adjuncts) is added to water and held at a constant warm temperature to allow the natural starches to convert to sugars. The sugars then provide yeast with its necessary food to convert into alcohol.

Pale Ale (See also India Pale Ale ) — A well-hopped Ale of British origin. Typically amber or copper in colour, Pales were so named because of their lightness and clarity relative to the popular Porters and other dark Ales of the era. Modern Pale Ales brewed in North America tend to be assertively hoppy and bitter.

Pilsner/Pilsener — A style of Lager that includes Bohemian, German and Continental Pilsners. Originating from Pizen, in the Czech Republic, a Pilsner is an all-malt Bier with a pronounced flowery hop aroma and dryness created by its native Saaz hop, lagered for drinkability.

Porter — A characteristically dark brown Bier of English origin, Porter is said to have been popular with transportation workers of Central London, hence the name. Black and chocolate malts are typically used in this well-hopped, medium-bodied Bier.

Quadrupel (Quad ) — A Belgian-style Ale originated by the Trappist brewers at La Trappe. This is a dark Ale that ranges in colour from deep red to brown with garnet hues. Offering rich and deep fruity notes and little hop character, these are very strong Ales with ABV ranging from 9% to 13%.

Reinheitsgebot (Bavarian Purity Law ) — The Reinheitsgebot, or Bavarian Purity Law, signed by Duke Wilhelm IV of Bavaria on April 23, 1516, decreed that “the only ingredients used for the brewing of Bier must be water, barley and hops.” Upon its discovery, yeast was added to complete the list of only four ingredients allowed for brewing.

Red Flanders – Flemish Sour — Two styles of Belgian Ales brewed with special yeast strains producing a Bier that is often sour from being aged and matured in oak casks or stainless steel over extended periods of time.

Session Bier — A British term used to describe a Bier that may be consumed during a “drinking session” because of its high drinkability, thanks to its relatively low alcohol content.

Stout — A very dark Ale, originally called Stout Porter. Several styles exist, including the classic roasty, coffee-ish Irish Dry Stout, rich and creamy Oatmeal Stout, strong Imperial Stout and the sweet and strong Caribbean Stout.

Sugar — Sugar gives yeast the “food” it needs to produce alcohol in the brewing process. Sugar is naturally produced during the mashing process, but sugars are also occasionally added in various forms, from raw to fructose and syrups. Sugars are also added to Biers that are bottle- or keg-fermented; these are often known as priming sugars.

Tripel — Belgian-style Ale that is bright yellow to gold in colour with a dense creamy head and spicy, yeasty fruity aromas and flavours with a sweet finish that comes from its high alcohol content, typically ranging from 8% to 11%.

Weissbier (See also Hefeweizen, Wheat Bier or Witbier ) — This term is used almost exclusively in the Southern German state of Bavaria. Weiss is German for “white,” referring to the colour of the foam that arises during the top-fermented brewing process.

Wheat Bier (See also Hefeweizen, Witbier or White Bier ) — Used generically, this term describes any Bier with a portion of wheat in the mash. Unless a specific style is identified, a Wheat Bier is usually a light Ale with a faintly citrusy flavour.

Wet Hop Technique — A method using fresh or “wet” hop flowers rather than the more commonly used dry or pellet version of this key ingredient. This expensive brewing process offers fresh hop flavour and aromas.

Witbier (Also known as a White Bier ) — Belgian style of Wheat Bier brewed with a large portion (30% to 50% of the total grain) of unmalted wheat and flavoured with coriander and orange peel.

Yeast — One of the four main ingredients in Bier, yeast is a single-celled fungus, capable of fermenting sugars to produce alcohol, carbon dioxide and other trace by-products. Brewers’ yeasts are broadly divided into two categories: Ale yeast and Lager yeast.
