It's called visceral fat. It's mostly in middle aged men. Not so much in women or children. Beer contributes to it, but so does a male hormone ratio.

Visceral fat releases inflammatory cytokines, and causes whole body inflammation. Basically ever "itis" you can think of it. Dermatitis, arthritis, bronchitis, pancreatitis, myocarditis, perhaps lupus. Subcutaneous fat doesn't do this. Sumo wrestlers don't have visceral fat because high intensity cardio gets rid of it.
