1)The difference is in the brewing process, depending on the type of yeast used in the brew and the temperature at which fermentation takes place. Ales are brewed with top-fermenting yeast which allows for rapid fermentation at warmer temperatures; Lagers are brewed with bottom-fermenting yeast which ferments more slowly and at colder temperatures.

Thanks! Looking forwards to it!
missed this, but just wanted to say the worst beer is the one that’s not in my hand. and bob and doug are heroes. which, if you anagram it, spells hoser e(h)!
Ales are full of lovely taste and lagers are made of urine.
Coors
I had a beer in Khajuraho, Madhya Pradesh in India at a restaurant where the waitor advised against me ordering it because it was so bad. I ordered it any way. It was the first and only beer I have never finished. It tasted like something you would enbalm a corpse in.
For me it is the brew awards tonight.
Dunno since I’m not Canadian and haven’t seen this movie.
