The name Gary means 'mighty spear' and I hear that there's both a Germanic and Celtic origen of the name.Garrett,Garth and Gareth are derivatives of the name. I suppose that being with all the people who lived before us and will live after us that a Saint Gary is probably out there............
As hops began to pervade breweries, however, this distinction between beer and ale no longer applied. Brewers began to differentiate between beer and ale on the basis of where the yeast fermented in the cask: ale uses yeast that gathers on the top, and lager uses yeast that ferments on the bottom.
Beers are broadly divided into two categories: top-fermented ales and bottom-fermented lagers. Stouts are a type of ale that uses slow-fermenting yeast that evolved out of the porter style. Stouts tend to be thicker, darker, opaque beers with higher specific gravity - similar to milk. They are usually less bitter than other ales, and typically exhibit tones like chocolate, coffee, oatmeal, and milk.
