Like Adam and Eve, Issac and Ishmael,Mao and Confuscious,
Good and Evil, Day and Night, Hittites and Visigoths,
John and Lorena, or Groucho and Moe, Ales and Lagers are
as different as can be. Still, we must love each other
for who they are, seperately but equally, with liberty,
and justice, for all. Cheers!
In
The beginning, there were ales. As far as anyone knows,
the first beers made were 'top-fermented', which is longhand
for 'Ale'. Sometime long before the 1860's, beers became
popular that were made in Northern Europe with a bottom
fermenting yeast strain that liked the colder temperatures.
Because they had to spend weeks aging before they tasted
their best, they were known as 'Lager' beer. Lager is
the German word for 'storage'. Since they had to sit a
while, they took up more time and space and as such were
harder and more expensive to make. Where ales are meaty,
lagers are sinewy. Where ales are stree, lagers are 'haute
couture'. Where an ale might hit you over the head and
take your wallet, lagers donate to charity and adopt stray
cats. While an ale might steal your car or try to date
your daughter and keep her out all night for who-knows-what
purpose, a well bred lager would offer to clean your house
while you're on vacation and leave fresh scones and coffee
for you when you return. Now, don't get us wrong, ales
can be a lot of fun to hang out with when you're in the
right mood, and if you have bail money on you. But what's
wrong with livin' uptown from time to time, on a nice
street, where the doormen all wear those little uniforms,
the air smells of flowers, and lagers rule the Earth.
Cheers!
