The beer brewing process involves malting, milling, mashing, extract separation, hop addition and boiling, removal of hops and precipitates, cooling and aeration, fermentation, separation of yeast from young beer, aging, and maturing. Brewing converts grain starches to sugar, extracts the sugar with water, and ferment it with yeast to produce the lightly carbonated beverage.

Lager is a type of beer. In Germany, brewing was a winter occupation, and ice was used to keep beer cool during the summer months. Such beer came to be called lager (from German lagern, “to store”). The term lager is today used to denote beer produced from bottom-fermenting yeast.
