I took to browsing the homebrew section at Woollies the other day as SWMBO lingered in the vegie isle. Now I'm not a lager brewer, apart from a one off fresh wort bock which I lagered for eight weeks, but out of curiosity re the ingredients of the $8 woollies homebrand lager I had a look at the lable and noticed the instructions were to brew as an ale - no lagering process. Got home and downloaded brewing instructions for Coopers 'original' series which includes a lager. Same instructions, no lagering process, just drink two weeks after bottling.
So this begs the question are these products actually lagers or just blonde/pale ales with an ale yeast under the lid?
