Historical Facts about Beer
"People have been brewing beer for thousands of years. Beer especially became a staple in the Middle Ages, when people began to live in cities where close quarters and poor sanitation made clean water difficult to find. The alcohol in beer made it safer to drink than water. In the 1400s in Germany, a type of beer was made that was fermented in the winter with a different type of yeast. This beer was called a lager. This beer is dominant in the United States today."
