 Lager - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lager is the term used in English to describe bottom-fermented beers of German and sometimes of Czech styles, though in the latter case the term "Pilsener" is more common.
Lager yeast is a bottom-fermenting yeast, and typically undergoes primary fermentation at 7-12°C (45-55°F) (the "fermentation phase"), and then is given a long secondary fermentation at 0-4°C (30-40°F) (the "lagering phase").
Lagers are stored at a low temperature (as low as 0°C/32°F) for several weeks to several months, clearing, acquiring mellowness, and becoming charged with carbon dioxide.
