Hello beer lovers! Beer is one of the oldest beverages humans have produced, dating back to at least the 5th millennium BC (prior even to even writing) so do the right thing and drink beer. It doesn’t matter what kind of beer you drink… dark beer… light beer… cheap beer… Irish beer… its all beer! Beer can give u confidence and make you feel good, so do the right thing and enjoy a icy cold (or warm) BEER A Little about me: People use me alot but that's fine. Abuse me too much and I can turn you into the Niagara falls. I make heifers look anorexic. I turn ugly people into models. But in the end I will always be there for you. Some history on beer: Beer is the world's oldest and most popular alcoholic beverage. It is produced through the fermentation of starch based material, commonly cereal, though cassava root in Africa, potato in Brazil and agave in Mexico, among other starch sources, have been used.
Neither the alcoholic beverages made from the fermentation of sugars derived from non-starch sources (e.g., grape juice or honey), nor the beverages distilled after fermentation are considered beer.
Because the ingredients and procedures used to make beer can differ, beer characteristics such as taste and colour may also vary. While local names for beers made with the same methods and ingredients may vary, the similarities of method and ingredients can be detected to form a study of the nature of beer styles. Beer strength Beer strength varies by local custom. British ale tends to average 4.4% abv. Belgian beers tend to average 8% abv. The strength of the typical global pale lager is 5% abv. The yeast used for brewing beer normally cannot get the strength much beyond 12% abv; however, in the 1980s the Swiss brewery Hurlimann developed a yeast strain which could get as high as 14% for their Samichlaus beer. Since then breweries have experimented with using champagne yeasts, continually pushing up the strength. Samuel Adams reached 20% abv with Millennium. The strongest beer sold in Britain was Dogfish Head's World Wide Stout, a 21% abv stout which was available from UK Safeways in 2003. In Japan in 2005, the Hakusekikan Beer Restaurant sold an eisbock, strengthened through freezing, believed to be 28% abv. The beer that is considered to be the strongest yet made is Hair of the Dog's Dave - a 29% abv barley wine made in 1994.
