Wordle Answer for October 6, 2024

What lager means

A type of beer that is brewed at cool temperatures using a yeast that ferments at the bottom of the vat, resulting in a clean, crisp flavor.

Where the word comes from

Lager comes from German Lagerbier, literally "storage beer," from Lager meaning "storehouse" or "camp." The German word traces back to Old High German lagar, related to Old Norse leigr (camp or bed) and ultimately to Proto-Germanic *ligraz, from the root meaning "to lie" or "recline." The beer itself earned the name because it was stored in cool caves or cellars during fermentation, distinguishing it from ales fermented at warmer temperatures.
