By presumption, most beer lovers prefer light beer in summer and dark beer in winter. This may be because dark beer is considered heavier than light beer.
The oldest data on brewing beer is about 6000 years old. They refer to the Sumerians. Sumeria was located between the rivers Tigris and Euphrates, including Mesopotamia and the ancient cities of Babylon and Ur. It is believed that the Sumerians discovered fermentation as a process by chance.
The earliest sources for making beer are the ancient engravings of the Sumerians. The resulting drink made people feel "amused, wonderful and infinitely happy." They considered this "divine drink" a gift from God.
After the Sumerian Empire was destroyed in the second millennium BC, the knowledge of making beer was inherited by the Babylonians. It is known that in Babylon they knew how to brew 20 different types of beer. However, the method was not perfect. The beer was cloudy and unfiltered. Over time, its spread reached Egypt.
Today, about 9 million brands of beer are produced in the world. They are divided depending on its main indicators - color intensity, taste and aroma, dark and light. In light beer it is normal to feel the bitterness of hops, and in dark - sweet, wine and caramel taste, the bitterness in it is softer.
Light beer can contain between 8 and 20% dry matter, while dark - from 12 to 21%. This concentration is given either in percentages or in degrees Balling. This unit was named after the Czech chemist Prof. Karel Napoleon Baling (1805–1868).
The degree of Baling is the percentage by weight of the extract, measured in grams, contained in 100 g of solution. It follows that beer with a low alcohol content has a density of up to 5%, medium - up to 12%, strong beer has a density of over 14%.
The density, or more precisely the concentration of dry matter in malt, is often mistaken for the alcohol content of beer. In reality, this indicator determines how many dissolved solids from the initial mixture (malt, hops, etc.) have passed into the beer.
Usually this is 10-12%. This inscription is directly related to the alcohol content of the beer. This is because there is no way to make a strong beer from a low-density raw material.
The difference between dark and light beer is both in color and taste. Preference is determined by experience.
