Lager is a different style of beer, in which the fermentation happens at the top rather than the bottom of the vat
I'd check that 1 out again

Agreed..could use some more research on that statement :-k

I love a pint of real ale as much as any, but even I felt a little queasy when reading that stuff.

What's all that hogwash about lager being rubbish because it's better drunk cold? A lot of lager may be rubbish, but cold isn't part of the argument - otherwise you could argue the same of any cold drink.

If you want to argue a case, even a justifiable one, it helps if you don't include transparently fatuous propaganda. That just undermines it.
