Beer in China was the dominant alcoholic beverage through the Han dynasty, after which it was eclipsed by rice wine. Modern brewing appeared in the late 1800s, brought to China by Europeans who brewed pale lagers, such as Tsingtao. Both beer production and consumption of local and imported brands grew increasingly popular in the 20th century.

Many beer styles are classified as one of two main types, ales and lagers, though certain styles may not be easily sorted into either category.Beers classified as ales are typically made with yeasts that ferment at warmer temperatures, usually between 15.5 and 24 °C (60 and 75 °F), and form a layer of foam on the surface of the fermenting beer, thus they are called top-fermenting yeasts.
Moreover, they are made with wild yeast, while ales and lagers are not, so they have their own space in the chart; Belgian ale and Dark ale are not meant to be kind of beers, by a way to group the sub-categories; by Belgian ale I meant all the particular ales that can't be classified as anything else and that were invented in Belgium.
