Belgian Pale Ale
A top-fermented, all malt, average strength Belgian ale that is moderately bitter, not dry-hopped, and without strong flavors, with a well-balanced, malty, fruity, and often bready and toasty profile.
top-fermented
Double IPA
An intensely hoppy, full-bodied ale with high alcohol content. Double IPAs showcase aggressive hop character with citrus, pine, floral, or herbal notes, supported by substantial malt body and moderate sweetness to balance the intense bitterness.
Dark Mild
A dark, low-gravity, malt-focused British session ale readily suited to drinking in quantity. Refreshing, yet flavorful, with a wide range of dark malt or dark sugar expression.
Brut IPA
A bone dry, highly carbonated, hop-focused beer with very little (if any) residual sweetness. Something like a mixture between the hop aroma of a New England IPA with the body and dryness of champagne.
Brown IPA
A mashup between American Brown Ale and American IPA. Nutty, caramelly, and lightly roasted malt flavors with a strong American hop presence. This style represents the American tradition of taking established styles and amplifying the hop character.
British Strong Ale
A designation used to describe a range of typically malty beers at higher-than-average ABV in the UK. The most famous examples in the states are "Winter Warmers," which are amber to brown, malty, often spiced beers for the holiday season.

Blonde Ale
A light, approachable ale with minimal complexity. Clean and smooth with subtle hop character and light malt sweetness, American Blonde Ales represent an entry point into craft beer with enough character to distinguish them from light lagers, yet accessible to drinkers unfamiliar with hop-forward beers.
Biere de Garde
Bière de Garde literally means "beer that is kept," referring to the original purpose of these beers. Brewed in winter to be consumed year-round, these malty yet dry beers balance significant grain character with crisp, clean finish. Modern versions are lagered ales or cold-aged ales with ale yeast, creating distinctive character. The style exists in three color variants: blond (pale), ambrée (amber), and brune (brown).
