Beer

An alcoholic beverage prepared by fermentation of various species of grains.

Brewer's yeast converts carbohydrates in the grains to ethanol. Hops are commonly added as a preservative, and other flavorings are often added. Psychoactive admixture plants can also be added, but this practice is rare today.
