             The Beer Process.
             .
             I"m sure you have opened your refrigerator before and discovered some beer in there. Well have you ever wondered what beer is actually constructed of and how it is produced? Many people consume beer and for all they know there could be bull urine in it. No actually there isn't any of that but I"ll be the one that enlightens you on the beer process. So next time you take down a "cold one", you can think of all the work that was put into that little beer.
             The process of producing of beer is an elaborate process. There are three main steps in producing the beers that you drink: brewing, fermentation, and filtration. Brewing is the mixing of the ingredients. Fermentation is the process in which the sugars in the yeast are broken down into alcohol. Filtration is the removing of particles from the beer. All three of these steps are very vital to maintaining a high quality beer.
             Beer is produced with many varieties of ingredients. All of there ingredients are carefully selected and have to pass many quality inspections in order to be later on utilized in the beer. The first ingredient you initiate the process with is water. Beer is ninety percent water. Next you add a specially selected portion of malted barely to the water. Malted barely is the soul of the beer and must meet special quality specifications. Corn gives the brew a milder-body flavor; hops add a spicy aroma along with bitter flavors. The yeast is included to change the sugars into alcohol and provides many of the characteristic aroma compounds. New flavors of beer can be produced with yeast strain. .
             Now there are many varieties of beers and flavors. Light beer is produced to accommodate those who prefer less calories and maybe less alcohol. Light beer is also less filling making you capable of drinking more quantity. Dark beer or amber beer is a heavier bodied beer which has a strong taste and fills you up quicker.
