Hi there! I recently had a bottle of a really good Japanese Black Lager.
I'm wanting to try to make one, but I'm completely lost as to how i make sure my brew is a Lager and not an Ale.
Is it to do with the Malts used, the yeast, Fermentation Temp, or a Mix of those?
I know this is prob common knowledge, but i've only just started homebrewing in the past few months, and many of my brews have just been kits.
