The only ingredient that creates the difference is yeast. But from
this relatively small variant comes a whole slew of changes that make every
type of beer so unique. Three main types that you should be familiar with are
ales, lagers and lambic.
Ales
Ales are brewed with a top-fermenting yeast that activates at mid-range room
temperatures. For this reason, ales are typically stored between 60° and 75°
Fahrenheit during the fermentation stage. This type of yeast and the fermentation
temperature is likely to give ales a fruitier and spicier flavor than lagers. In general,
ales are more robust and complex. Ales are usually ready to drink within three
weeks after the beginning of fermentation, then again, some styles get even better
from additional aging for several months or years, just like wines.
Common styles of ale include pale ale, India pale ale, amber ale, porters, and stouts.
As for pairing, it goes perfectly with all that fatty food we all love like burgers,
buffalo wings, anything fried, pizza, steaks, plus basically any Asian food and spicy
food, such as Mexican.

Have you ever had those mornings when you couldn’t get out of bed? It has happened to all of us. However, the one way to counter that sleep attack from your body is to drink energy drinks. Energy drinks contain caffeine, and a lot of it. Most Energy drinks contain somewhere from 80 to 90 mg. of caffeine (per 250 mL). Energy drinks aren’t just filled with caffeine, they contain many other things as well. Whether it’s Ginseng, a herb believed to increase energy. Or maybe it’s Guarana, a plant that contains 4-5% caffeine, compared to arabica coffee beans, which contain 2-3%. With all of these unique ingredients inside energy drinks, will people be able to tell if they are drinking energy drinks, or something else?

An ale is any beer that is brewed using only top-fermenting yeasts, and typically at higher temperatures than lager yeast. Because ale yeasts cannot fully ferment some sugars, they produce esters in addition to alcohol, and the result is a more flavourful beer with a slightly "flowery" or "fruity" aroma resembling but not limited to apple, pear, pineapple, grass, hay, plum or prune. Stylistic differences among ales are more varied than those found among lagers, and many ale styles are difficult to categorize. Top-fermented beers, particularly popular in the British Isles, include barley wine, bitter, pale ale, porter, and stout. Stylistic differences among top-fermented beers are decidedly more varied than those found among bottom-fermented beers and many beer styles are difficult to categorize. California Common beer, for example, is produced using a lager yeast at ale temperatures. Wheat beers are often produced using an ale yeast and then lagered, sometimes with a lager yeast. Lambics employ wild yeasts and bacteria, naturally-occurring in the Payottenland region of Belgium.
Alcohol is a widely available drug. Some people may use alcohol from time to time, and drink small amounts. Other people may drink frequently, and drink large amounts at a time. People who drink alcohol very often for a long time, and have problems after drinking alcohol, may have what is called an alcohol use disorder. Alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence are the two main types of alcohol use disorders:
