![]() So what’s the difference between a lager and a pilsner? Lager covers a wide variety of beers (though not as many varieties as ale) and Pilsner is one specific expression of a lager. Just like all thumbs are fingers, but not all fingers are thumbs, all pilsners are lagers but not all lagers are pilsners. So that Natty Ice, Coors Banquet, or can of Hamm’s you tried (when you were possibly too young to do so)… that was a lager. Bud, Coors, Miller, even imports like Heineken, Corona, and Fosters are all lagers. While ales - IPAs, double IPAs, imperial stouts, saisons - seem to get all the attention thanks to craft brewing, a few big breweries still dominate the beer market by a considerable margin. It’s very likely that the first beer you ever drank was a lager.
