Ok, so I'm always hearing from people that their best beer memories are of beers that are "fresh and unpasteurized". But I don't understand what this means. I know pasteurizing is basically just boiling something to sanitize it.
But all beer is like that.
So, is this about boiling after fermentation? Is this just a myth? Or do commercial breweries "pasteurize" their beer in some way? If so, why?
Thanks for the help.
