There are a vast number of different beers with a pub quiz whole range of tastes and strengths.  British brewers alone produce over 2000 real ales and numerous other beers and lagers.  Brewing has pub quizbeen traced back as far as 5000 BC in the Middle East yet brewing is a complex process requiring skill and care.  If you crush pub quiz grapes then wine ferments from it, the juice of apples will turn naturally to cider, but to make beer from barley requires many steps. All beer is pub quiz brewed from malted barley, hops, yeast and water though other ingredients can be used.  Yeast ferments the sugars in the malt to produce pub quiz alcohol.  Hops provide bitter flavour and aroma.  The flavour of the beer depends on many things, the types of malt and hops used, the use of other ingredients and, crucially, the type of yeast used.  Each variety leaves its own distinctive influence on the beer.  The beers served in our pub quiz pubs fall into two distinct categories because they are produced in two different ways.  These are Lager and Real Ale.

In the pub cellar, cask beer has to be nurtured to maturity pub quiz and condition.  Each cask has two holes, in one of which the tap is inserted and the other allows any extra gasses produced by secondary fermentation to be released.  However, cellar staff must ensure that sufficient condition is maintained so that the beer is not served flat.  Condition is pub quiz maintained by using wooden pegs called spiles in the second hole to control the level of carbon dioxide in the beer.  As real Ale is a living pub quiz product it needs care and once the cask is opened it has a limited shelf life.  It has to be consumed within a few days otherwise it will become flat, pub quiz cardboard and vinegar flavours will develop as the beer reacts with oxygen in the air.  It is best served at cellar temperature, which is around 12-13 C, although pub quiz some stronger ales can benefit from being served a little warmer.
