The main difference between ales and lagers is the type of yeast used in the brewing process, which in turn dictates what ingredients and techniques can be used.

DID BUDWEISER CHANGE THERE NAME TO AMERICA

Budweiser American Ale was an American-style amber ale produced by Anheuser-Busch under its Budweiser brand. Introduced in September 2008, and discontinued in 2011, American Ale was meant to appeal to beer enthusiasts who were looking for a more complex flavor than the popular Budweiser lager.
It had 5.3% alcohol by volume and was widely available across the United States. A 3.2% alcohol by weight version was available in select states as determined by local laws.

What is the difference between Pale Ales, IPAs, and double IPAs?

All of these beer styles are quite hoppy and bitter. They are not too different from one another, as they are within the same beer family; however they do have a few distinctive variances.

• Pale ales - brewed with lightly roasted 'pale' malts and have a nice balance between hops and malt

• IPA's - much hoppier than pale ales - can be found in both English and American styles, with the Americans making a more hoppy version

• Double IPA's - an American style take on pale ales that loads the beer full of hops, sometimes doubling or even tripling the normal amounts found in traditional pale ales

The Depth & temp come from two different sensors. Check your coax cable to the transducer (the lager oval piece), the connector, and the transducer for cracks /breaks in insulation. Good luck.
