Blond beer
The most spreaded beer, recognizable thanks to its gilded color, color of the moonlight or color of freshly cut stubbles.
The range extends from bitter beers with a low alcohol content to sweeter beers with a much more important alcohol content.
Bottom fermentation
Fermented at a temperature between 39°F and 54°F, bottom fermented beers are usually less fruity and have a lower alcohol content than top fermented ones. Moreover, they often contain more carbon dioxide and should be drunk at a lower temperature.
This type of fermentation spread during the 19th century. It became famous because of a beer brewed in the city of Pilsen in Czech Republic. Since this time, the name of the city has been transmitted to bottom fermented beers that are usually called "Pils".
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 :-)
