...boiled, the hops and yeast are added to ferment the beer and give it its characteristic, slightly bitter tang. Both temperature and time must be controlled to the minute. The immense lagering cellars, where the fermentation goes on for 21 days, must be airtight to keep out all airborne bacteria. Finally, Anheuser-Busch treats its beer with a time-honored process that no other major national brewer uses.
