Brown beer
Prepared with strongly roasted malt, they are recognizable thanks to their dark color.
Usually, these are the strongest beers. Some of them, because of the roasted malt, have a slightly acidulous taste.
Top fermentation
Fermented at a temperature between 59°F and 79°F, top fermented beers are famous because of their more complex flavours. Moreover, they often have a higher alcohol content (depending on the malt quantity) than bottom fermented ones.
This fermentation type was originally the most spread one, but since this time bottom fermented beers have flooded the market. Mainly brewed by artisanal breweries, top fermented beers are the ones prefered by beer lovers.
Not refermented in the bottle
After main fermentation, these beers are bottled and ready to be drunk. This way, absence of refermentation allows a shorter brewing process.

"Balanced" foam
Beer with a balanced foam, not too much, not too few! These beers are likely to be served in a round glass slightly flared to obtain a good proportion between foam and beer.
Depending on the habits, the beer can be served at one go or in two times. In this case, serve a first part of the beer and begin to enjoy. Then serve the rest of the beer to obtain a beautiful collar again.
This balanced foam allows very thirsty people to drink from the bottle :-)
Strong Pale-Ale
Top fermented beers (fermented at a temperature between 59°F and 79°F) which alcohol content is from medium to high.
Their color range goes from pale to golden.
