The correct sequence of steps for beer preparation is malting (where barley grains are soaked and allowed to sprout, then dried and roasted), mashing (grinding the malt and mixing it with hot water to extract the sugars), adding hops (to add flavor and bitterness), fermentation (adding yeast to convert the sugars to alcohol), and aging (to allow the beer to mature and develop its flavors). Clarification may also be a step, but it is not always necessary. Option B follows this sequence correctly.
