Do all volcanoes have lava when they erupt?

Dear Reader,

Most have lava in the form of lava flows or pyroclasts. Phreatic eruptions involve explosions caused by the interaction of water and hot rocks or magma. Some phreatic eruptions consist of steam and old rock fragments without new lava being erupted.
