German lagers
German lagers are a category of beers originating from Germany, brewed using bottom-fermenting yeast at cooler temperatures. This process results in clean, smooth, and well-balanced flavors. Common types include Pilsners, which are crisp and hoppy; Helles, a light and malty pale lager; Dunkels, darker with roasted malt notes; and Bocks, strong and rich. German lagers emphasize quality ingredients and traditional brewing methods, producing beers that are refreshing, easy to drink, and showcase regional malt and hop characteristics. They are appreciated worldwide for their clarity, drinkability, and varied flavor profiles rooted in German brewing heritage.
