Actually, it is very difficult to brew very light, flavorless beers at home. You can try, but be forwarned that your beer might be more flavorful. Ales and lagers are brewed with distinctly different strains of yeast. Ale yeast produces fruity characteristics while Lager yeast produces the crisp, dry and somewhat sulfury flavors. Beers brewed with Lager yeast require aging at cold temperatures to naturally remove harsh flavors and make the beer smoother.
All lagers improve with a few weeks to a few months cold aging.
Ales are generally best served fresh, within a month after fermentation. SOBs like beer. We travel all over the world looking for great beer. When we can't find good beer at local stores, we make it ourselves. We also enjoy sharing our beers and recipes with others.
