Brewed from just four ingredients—water, malted barley, yeast, and hops—beer is, in essence, simple. But just as a cook can transform the same ingredients into an array of different recipes, so can a brewmaster. She can also use different types of grain (wheat, oats, rice, corn) to replace some of the malted barley, and she can add add fruit, spices, and ingredients like chocolate, coffee, even oysters.
There are many beer styles, but all fall into one of two categories: lagers or ales. Lagers are a product of bottom-fermenting yeasts that clump together at the bottom of the brewing vessel, resulting in a delicate, clean beer. Ales are made using a top-fermenting yeast, which sits on the top of the brew, resulting in full-bodied, richly flavored, or fruity beers. Here are five common beer styles and pairing recommendations for the foods to enjoy with each.
