The pure and good beer adopts the craft ale process, and the domestic beer is mostly lagag process, commonly known as industrial light beer, which belongs to the evening snack skewer, a few dollars for a large bottle, the more you drink, the more light.
Originally, beer was brewed from four main ingredients: malt, hops, yeast and water.
But domestic industrial light beer not only pays attention to the production process and fermentation time, but also pays attention to the raw materials.
In order to save costs, a large amount of starch auxiliary materials such as rice and corn, and the proportion of compressed malt, naturally reduce the cost a lot.
However, the taste is very light, like drinking cold water, without the stickiness that beer should have. No "bitter" taste typical of beer.
A lot of people have a misconception that beer with too much bitterness doesn't taste good and is of poor quality.
The bitterness of beer actually comes from hops, which are mainly distributed in the northern hemisphere, including Xinjiang, Gansu, Inner Mongolia, Sichuan and Heilongjiang.
Hops are the "soul of beer", giving the beer its unique character - a captivating bitterness and a refreshing aroma.
Not only that, but it is also a natural "preservative".
Without or with very little hops, beer cannot be stored for more than 14 days and can easily become sour or spoiled.
However, in order to save costs, domestic industrial light beer is added with syrup or other raw materials to continuously dilute the proportion of hops.
As the core ratio of malt to hops drops, it's almost water.
The water content of domestic industrial light beer is as high as 90%.
Most of the time, not because you can hold it, but because the beer is too weak.
