BeerAmong the many choices of beer are lager beer, pilsner or light lager beer, light beer, premium beer, dark lager or Munich-type beer, bock beer, keg beer, nonalcoholic beer and alcohol-free beer.

 

Imported beers are often more bitter than American beers. Dark lager or Munich-type beer are heavy and rich-tasting. They're chocolate brown in color. Bock beer is a special brew of heavy beer, somewhat darker and sweeter than regular beer. It's made in the winter, especially for the six-week-long bock beer season that beer lovers date as the beginning of spring. The alcohol content may be more than double that of lager beers.

 

Although the term nonalcoholic beer suggests that it is completely free of alcohol, it isn't necessarily so. By law, nonalcoholic beer must contain less than .5 percent alcohol. Don't look for the word beer on the label. These types of beer are called malt beverages, cereal beverages or near beer.
