Originated in the town of Pilsen, of the Czech Republic. The most classic of pilseners. Their signature is the use of Saaz hops and a golden color. They are around 5% ABV. The most hop-forward classic lager brewing style in terms of flavor and aroma. The good kind of skunky.
1	Stiegl Pils Draft Pilsner-Germany Stiegl Brau 4.9% Lager Austria 1 TIX
Sometimes a higher hop bitterness, but often moderate hop flavor/aroma, and lighter in color (straw/golden) than the Czech pils. Hallertau Hops are the German bittering signature, somewhere between 30-40 IBU. A slightly "cleaner" (crisper) version than the Czech.

(German dark lager) Pronounced malty aroma and flavor that dominates over a clean crisp moderate hop bitterness. They can be chocolaty, chewy, and often exhibit a bread-like aroma, from the use of Munich malt. Colors range from light brown to dark brown.
1	Bavik Super Pils Draft Pilsner- Bohemian DE BRABANDERE 5.2% Lager Belgium 1 TIX
More full-bodied, slightly sweeter and more malty than German pilseners and may be light amber in color. Bohemian pilseners are also typified by the use of Czech Saaz hops, and may have IBU‘s as high as 45, despite sweetness in finish.
1	Wittekerke Sour Grapefruit Draft White (Wit) Bier/(Biere Blanche)-Belgium DE BRABANDERE 5.0% Lager Belgium 2 TIX
Sour Witbier
Witbier was originally popularized in Hoegaarden, a small town in a wheat-growing region east of Brussels and Leuven. This style is usually made from equal portions of raw wheat and malted barley, spiced with ground coriander seeds and dried orange peels. The fruitiness imparted by the wheat blends well with the orange and coriander. The style is further characterized by the use of noble-type hops. Wheat beers are identified as being "white" in several brewing nations. Wheat beers can be filtered, but less easily than those made from barley malt. They usually tip the scale around 5% ABV.
2	Petrus Sour Passionfruit Aged Pale Draft Sour/Wild Ale DE BRABANDERE 7.3% Ale Belgium 3 TIX
Sour ale is a broad spectrum of wild ales, from the fruity and acetic Flanders Red Ales and Oud Bruins, to the experimental ales gaining popularity in the United States which use lactobacillus, brettanomyces and pediococcus in new and wild ways.
2	Boon Geuze Selection Draft Lambic-Gueuze-Belgium Boon 6.3% Ale Belgium 4 TIX
A champagne style lambic. The carbonation is achieved by blending young Lambic (typically six months old) with more mature vintages (two to three years). The residual sugars in the young Lambic and the yeasts that have developed in the old cause a new fermentation. The most traditional examples will usually have the endorsement label of the organization De Objectieve Bierproevers. References to "old" (oud, vieux, vieille) on the label indicate a minimum of six months and a genuine Lambic process. Without these legends, a Lambic may have been "diluted" with a more conventional beer.
2	Cherry Supernova Draft LIMITED Saison/Farmhouse-American Almanac CA 6.8% Ale USA 3 TIX
Saison / Farmhouse BA w/ Cherries
A broad range of funky beers loosely based on the classic Belgian Saison brewing style. This is a "catch all" category for anything funky that isn't a traditional Saison.
2	Hell Draft Helles-Germany Bayreuther 4.8% Lager Germany 1 TIX
Helles Lager
In many ways, the German Helles lagers embody the flavor profile that the large American mega-breweries are trying to capture. An excellent example of subtlety in beer making. 4.5%-5.5% ABV, and very low hops (18-25 IBU)
2	Maisel's Weisse Original Draft Hefe Weizen-Germany MAISEL 5.2% Ale Germany 1 TIX
"Hefe" means "unfiltered" or "with yeast". Clove and banana-like esters produced by particular strains of brewing yeast are signatures of this style. German style wheat beers are highly carbonated, have low hop character and are brewed using at least 50% malted wheat. Sometimes they are called "Weiss-biers", or white beer. This is a reference to the light color of the beer and head.
3	Saxo Draft Belgian Strong Golden (BSG) Caracole 7.7% Ale Belgium 3 TIX
Pale in color and usually rather bubbly, this style is usually filtered. This, and to some degree strength, are key differences between it and Belgian Triples. The most famous are strong ones like Duvel, at 8.5% ABV. The name is Flemish for Devil. It is not uncommon to find Strong goldens over 10%. There are many beers in this style who carry a name associated with Satan. In fact, there's one called Satan. And Lucifer, and Belzebuth, Horny Devil, etc.
3	St. Bernardus Abt 12 Draft Quadrupel-Belgium St. Bernardus 10.0% Ale Belgium 3 TIX
With an ABV range of 9% - 13% and inspired by the Trappist brewers of Belgium, a Quadrupel is a Belgian style ale of great strength with bolder flavor compared to its Dubbel and Tripel sister styles. Typically a dark creation that ranges within the deep red, brown and garnet hues. Full bodied with a rich malty palate. Phenols are usually at a moderate level. Sweet with a low bitterness yet a well perceived alcohol.
3	Tripel Draft Tripel-Belgium Val-Dieu Abbey 9.0% Ale Belgium 3 TIX
Tripel: Probably the most pervasive style of the Abbey Ale sub-categories, tripels are lighter in color, yet higher in strength, usually over 8% ABV. It has been written that tripels use three times the normal amount of malt, dubbels twice as much, etc. True or not, tripels are fine examples of a light color/high strength beer style. Tripels can be very dry to very sweet, showing more range within their category than the other sub-styles.
3	Duchesse De Bourgogne Draft Flemish/Flanders Red-Belgium Verhaeghe 6.0% Ale Belgium 3 TIX
A Flanders Red, are commonly referred to as the "red" beers of West Flanders. Belgian Red Beers are typically light-bodied brews with reddish-brown colors. They are infamous for their distinct sharp, fruity, sour and tart flavours which are created by special yeast strains. Very complex beers, they are produced under the age old tradition of long-term cask aging in oak, and the blending of young and old beers.
4	Okocim OK Draft Export Lager Okocim Brewery 5.6% Lager Poland 1 TIX
Broad range term which applies to a large group of similar mainstream lager styles produced in many countries. The best are all-barley beers, with soft floral hop qualities. They range between 3.5%-5.5% ABV...the ultimate lawnmower beers of the world.
4	Corsendonk Abbey Brown Draft Dubbel-Belgium Corsendonk 6.5% Ale Belgium 2 TIX

5	Aventinus Draft Doppelbock-Germany Schneider & Sohn 8.2% Ale Germany 2 TIX
Maybe the world's greatest wheat doppelbock
Contrary to popular belief, it has been argued that doppelbocks are not really related to bocks, other than by name. They come from a different place and time in history. During the Protestant Reformation (Circa 1517), the Franciscan monks from Paula Italy settled in Munich. These monks would ritually brew strong beer to carry them through the two holy fasts of Lent and Advent. While the beer style can be dated to the 1500's (which makes them a few hundred years younger than bocks), it didn't even get its name "dopplebock" until the early 1900's, when it became a popular style in Munich. The people, comparing it to the immensely popular bockbiers of the day, noticed the difference in color and strength, subsequently giving it the moniker "doppelbock" (double bock). Originally top-femented wheat beers, today they are primarily barley-based lagers. Doppel bocks were brewed with more grain than used for bocks, but not fermented as thoroughly. This left a sweet finish. The "noble" hops used in doppelbocks are for balance and slight aroma, nothing more. Despite their strength, they are a study in subtlety. (17-30 IBU, 6.5%-8% ABV) Traditional bock: Similar to helles bock, yet a couple shades darker in color, and with an even lower level of bitterness (no higher than 30 IBU). Their alcohol content is the same.
5	Ducato Chrysopolis Draft LIMITED Lambic-Fruit-Belgium B. United Intl 5.0% Ale Italy 5 TIX
Italian Lambic
They are beers, and not wines, because the original fermentation is grain based (the definition for beer). The fruit comes later, and is an excellent compliment to acidity of the lambic beer style. In the traditional method, the fruit is added during the maturation of the beer, causing a further fermentation. The best of Belgian fruit beers have the dryness of pink Champagne, rather than the sweetness of a soda-pop.
5	Ducato Oud Brunello Draft Flanders Oud Bruin-Belgium B. United Intl 7.0% Ale Italy 4 TIX
Flanders Oud Bruin
This classic style from Flanders Belgium combines malty sweetness with a sourness gained from several months of maturation (usually in metal tanks). The most complex examples have a secondary fermentation in the bottle. Oudenaarde is the most famous producing town, located in East Flanders. Oudenaarde's water is low in calcium and high in sodium carbonate, which gives a particularly textured character to the beers. Typical examples of Belgian browns come in three ages and strengths.
5	JW Lee's Lagavulin Draft Barley Wine B. United Intl 11.5% Ale England 4 TIX
Barleyine-English: Vintage 2016, Single Malt Scotch Barrel
Born of England & Scotland, barley wines are often considered the most prized of all ales. With the strength of wine and the complexity of cognac, these beers show extraordinary richness, depth, and alcoholic warmth. Like fine wines, they benefit from aging, which allows their intense flavors to marry and deepen. Barley wines are very similar to English strong ales, but are usually set apart by more assertive hop bitterness and a high residual malty sweetness.
5	JW Lee's Sherry Draft LIMITED Barley Wine B. United Intl 11.5% Ale England 3 TIX
Sherry BA English Barelywine
Born of England & Scotland, barley wines are often considered the most prized of all ales. With the strength of wine and the complexity of cognac, these beers show extraordinary richness, depth, and alcoholic warmth.

Spanish Basque Cider
Fermented and brewed like beer, but using fruit (usually pear or apple) as the basis for alcohol production. Ciders can range from 5%-8%, but usually hover around 6% ABV. England made them famous, but France also produces exceptional examples. In recent years, the United States is getting in the game as well.

6	Ola Dubh 10 yr (2yr Highland Park) Draft Old Ale (England) B. United Intl 10.5% Ale Scotland 4 TIX
2 Yr BA (Highland Park) English Old Ale
Ranging from 4 - 12% ABV, Old Ales, also referred to in the past as "Stock" Ales, are low attenuated beers with high levels of dextrins, creating a full malt body with plenty of character. Old Ales of a hundred plus years ago were often transfered into vats to mature, hence the name. Rich dark amber in color to a very dark brown; near black. Tamed aromatics. Although bittering levels can greatly vary, expect common fruity, vinous, intense malts and sharp alcohol characteristics. The often racy but mellow attitude of the beer may also include acidic notes, raisins and black currants. Vintage varieties may have a low level of oxidation. Stronger versions may have similarities to a port wine. Brewers may also inoculate a portion of the batch with Brettanomyces lambicus and age for an extended period of time to achieve an old-school acidic character.
6	Saison de Pipax Draft Saison, Classic-Belgium B. United Intl 6.0% Ale England 3 TIX
Saison, Traditional
The Saison style began as a pale ale brewed in the cooler, less active months in farmhouses in Wallonia Belgium, and stored for the summer drinking. These farmhouse beers would have been of a lower ABV than modern saisons. Brewing outside the summer months was common before the discovery of refrigeration, due to the likelihood of the beer spoiling while fermenting in the summer. After brewing, the beer was stored until the summer when the main consumers would be seasonal farm workers ("saisonniers"). Historically, saisons did not share enough identifiable characteristics to pin them down as a specific style, but rather were a group of refreshing summer ales made by farmers. Each farm brewer would make his own distinctive version. The modern style has been largely defined by Saison Dupont, a beer that's been made in Tourpes Belgium since the late 1800's. In the late 1980's or early 90's an importer stared selling Saison Dupont in the U.S. and the rest is history. Today Dupont is widely regarded as the standard bearer of the style. Modern saisons are generally highly carbonated, fruity and spicy�sometimes from the addition of spices.
7	La Fin Du Monde Draft Tripel-Belgium Unibroue 9.0% Ale Canada 2 TIX
Tripel: Probably the most pervasive style of the Abbey Ale sub-categories, tripels are lighter in color, yet higher in strength, usually over 8% ABV. It has been written that tripels use three times the normal amount of malt, dubbels twice as much, etc. True or not, tripels are fine examples of a light color/high strength beer style.

7	Ephemere Strawberry Rhubarb Draft Fruit (non Lambic)-Countries vary Unibroue 5.5% Ale Canada 2 TIX
Fruit Witbier
This is a catch-all beer style for fruit beers, lambic-like or otherwise, which are not true lambics.
7	Big Juice DIPA - Smoothie Edition Draft Double (Imperial) IPA (USA) Three Magnets WA 7.5% Ale USA 1 TIX
With an obscene ABV range of 7.5%-10%, just take an India Pale Ale and feed it steroids, ergo the term Double IPA. Although open to the same interpretation as its sister styles, you should expect something robust, malty, alcoholic and with a hop profile that might rip your tongue out. The Imperial usage comes from Russian Imperial stout, a style of strong stout originally brewed in England for the Russian Imperial Court of the late 1700s. Its application to an unrelated style makes little sense to many, so Double IPA is quickly becoming the preferred name. You can thank west coast American brewers for this somewhat reactionary style. "Thanks!"
7	Chef's Choice #2 Draft Kolsch-Germany Three Magnets WA 5.6% Ale USA 1 TIX
Kolsch Brewed with Coconut Water, Thai Basil and Ginger
A golden top-fermenting beer that originated in Cologne. Medium bodied and usually around 5% abv.

8	Samichlaus Classic Draft Helles bock/ Maibock-Germany Eggenberg 14.0% Lager Austria 4 TIX
Lighter in color (“helles” means light in German), with an average strength of 6%-7.5%. Hop bitterness is low, yet noble hop aroma may be at medium levels. (20-35 IBU)
9	Bruges Zot Draft Blonde-Belgium De Halve Maan 6.0% Ale Belgium 2 TIX
Often aromatic and fruity-tasting, some Belgian Blondes are at a conventional alcohol content of 5% ABV. But the majority range between 6.5% & 8%, after which point they are often referred to as Strong Golden, or a triple. One key difference is that the blondes are often bottle conditioned, which makes them similar to Belgian triples in style...kind of like the kid brother. The Strong Goldens tend to be filtered more often.
9	Straffe Hendrik Tripel Draft Tripel-Belgium De Halve Maan 9.0% Ale Belgium 3 TIX
Tripel: Probably the most pervasive style of the Abbey Ale sub-categories, tripels are lighter in color, yet higher in strength, usually over 8% ABV. It has been written that tripels use three times the normal amount of malt, dubbels twice as much, etc. True or not, tripels are fine examples of a light color/high strength beer style. Tripels can be very dry to very sweet, showing more range within their category than the other sub-styles.

9	Oud Beersel Lambic Draft Lambic-Belgium OUD BEERSEL 5.7% Ale Belgium 4 TIX
Lambics represent the oldest style of beer (and beer making) found in the modern world. Specific to the Brussels area, this style resembles wine and champagne more than any other beer in the world. It is not uncommon for Lambics to have a fermentation period of two or three years, and much of that time in wooden casks. Most of these beers have a conventional alcohol content, in the range of 3%-6% ABV.
10	Ora Et Labora Draft Doppelbock-Germany LA TRAPPE (Trappist) 7.5% Lager Netherlands 3 TIX

10	Puur Draft Pale Ale-Belgium LA TRAPPE (Trappist) 4.7% Lager Netherlands 2 TIX
Belgian Pale
Belgian Pales consume the Belgian brewing scene, and were initially brewed to compete with Pilseners during the WWII time frame. They differ from other regional Pale Ale varieties, by traditionally being less bitter, using aged hops for a delicate hop finish, and boasting sweetish to toasty malt overtones. They should be decanted properly, leaving the yeast in the bottle. This will showcase their brilliant color range from pale straw yellow to amber hues. Most will be crowned with thick, clinging, rocky white heads. Flavors and aromas will vary. Some have natural spice characters from yeast and hops, while others are spiced. ABV range: 4%-7%

Before the term "Quadruppel" was "invented" by La Trappe for commercial purposes, Quads would have been grouped (and still should be) in this category. While not unheard of, Belgian Strong Dark Ales are not usually flavored as are many Belgians, save for a little candy sugar to help increase the alcohol. They are typical dark in color in, and some are completely opaque. They range between 9%-12% in strength and offer great complexity & depth. These are very rich and flavorful beers with very little or no percievable hop character.

13	Duvel Single Draft Pale Ale-Belgium Duvel USA 6.8% Ale Belgium 2 TIX
Belgian Pales consume the Belgian brewing scene, and were initially brewed to compete with Pilseners during the WWII time frame. They differ from other regional Pale Ale varieties, by traditionally being less bitter, using aged hops for a delicate hop finish, and boasting sweetish to toasty malt overtones. They should be decanted properly, leaving the yeast in the bottle. This will showcase their brilliant color range from pale straw yellow to amber hues. Most will be crowned with thick, clinging, rocky white heads. Flavors and aromas will vary. Some have natural spice characters from yeast and hops, while others are spiced. ABV range: 4%-7%
13	Tank 7 Saison Draft Saison, Classic-Belgium Boulevard MO 8.5% Ale USA 2 TIX
The Saison style began as a pale ale brewed in the cooler, less active months in farmhouses in Wallonia Belgium, and stored for the summer drinking. These farmhouse beers would have been of a lower ABV than modern saisons. Brewing outside the summer months was common before the discovery of refrigeration, due to the likelihood of the beer spoiling while fermenting in the summer. After brewing, the beer was stored until the summer when the main consumers would be seasonal farm workers ("saisonniers"). Historically, saisons did not share enough identifiable characteristics to pin them down as a specific style, but rather were a group of refreshing summer ales made by farmers. Each farm brewer would make his own distinctive version. The modern style has been largely defined by Saison Dupont, a beer that's been made in Tourpes Belgium since the late 1800's. In the late 1980's or early 90's an importer stared selling Saison Dupont in the U.S. and the rest is history. Today Dupont is widely regarded as the standard bearer of the style. Modern saisons are generally highly carbonated, fruity and spicy�sometimes from the addition of spices.

14	Erdinger Hefe-Weizen Draft Hefe Weizen-Germany Erdinger 5.3% Ale Germany 1 TIX
The Premium Weissbier at the top of its class. Not only in the context of the Erdinger assortment Erdinger Weissbier with fine yeast applies undisputed as the classical authors, as the white beer absolutely. It is brewed with fine yeast after a delivered prescription and naturally strictly after the Bavarian purity requirement. Today still without the traditional bottle fermentation one does not do here: Three to four weeks it lasts, until the Erdinger Weissbier with fine yeast matured.
"Hefe" means "unfiltered" or "with yeast". Clove and banana-like esters produced by particular strains of brewing yeast are signatures of this style. German style wheat beers are highly carbonated, have low hop character and are brewed using at least 50% malted wheat. Sometimes they are called "Weiss-biers", or white beer. This is a reference to the light color of the beer and head.
14	Erdinger Dunkel Draft Dunkel Weizen-Germany Erdinger 5.5% Ale Germany 1 TIX

Belgian-style White IPA
This is the category for beers that don't fit into categories. For our purposes, this term applies mostly to beers from non-US breweries. Such beers from the US might be called "New World Ales" (or Lagers). In general, "hybrid" might mean that a beer incorporates more than one brewing style, or the use of unconventional ingredients or aging. In some cases it might refer to a beer that has been blended with another beer of completely different style, or maybe something that is not even beer at all (like mead or brandy, etc.).

17	PranQster Draft Strong Ale (Blonde/Pale)-Belgium North Coast CA 7.6% Ale USA 1 TIX

17	The Brother Draft Double (Imperial) IPA (USA) Fremont Brewery WA 8.5% Ale USA 1 TIX
With an obscene ABV range of 7.5%-10%, just take an India Pale Ale and feed it steroids, ergo the term Double IPA. Although open to the same interpretation as its sister styles, you should expect something robust, malty, alcoholic and with a hop profile that might rip your tongue out. The Imperial usage comes from Russian Imperial stout, a style of strong stout originally brewed in England for the Russian Imperial Court of the late 1700s. Its application to an unrelated style makes little sense to many, so Double IPA is quickly becoming the preferred name. You can thank west coast American brewers for this somewhat reactionary style. "Thanks!"

A style derived from "Sommerbiere" (Summer beer). Ur-Marzen, meaning "original of March", are beers that were brewed in March, and made stronger to remain preserved over the summer months, prior to the help of modern refridgeration. A son of the owner of the Spaten Brewery learned of this brewing style while serving as an apprentice in Vienna around 1870. The next year, it was served for the first time at the Oktoberfest in Munich and, due to its popularity, became the official beer style from that point on.

Before the term "Quadruppel" was "invented" by La Trappe for commercial purposes, Quads would have been grouped (and still should be) in this category.

They are typical dark in color in, and some are completely opaque. They range between 9%-12% in strength and offer great complexity & depth. These are very rich and flavorful beers with very little or no percievable hop character.

Imp. Porter, Bourbon and Rum BA
Close cousin to the imperial stout. Like IPAs, any beer style that includes the word “Imperial” is usually quite high in hops and most certainly higher in alcohol. Originally an invention of necessity, “Imperials” were usually beers that were made in one country and shipped to another, often bound for the lips of royalty (hence the name Imperial). It‘s another case of long journeys calling on the properties of higher alcohol and hops to act as preservatives.

23	Super Jubel 2015 Draft LIMITED Strong Ale (American) Deschutes OR 10.4% Ale USA 3 TIX
A catch-all style name for all those big beautiful beers coming out of the US which defy conventional style categories. American Strong Ales typically lurk somewhere between barley wines & Double IPA's. They tend to be over 8% and are often very hoppy.

With an obscene ABV range of 7.5%-10%, just take an India Pale Ale and feed it steroids, ergo the term Double IPA. Although open to the same interpretation as its sister styles, you should expect something robust, malty, alcoholic and with a hop profile that might rip your tongue out.

Italian Lambic
They are beers, and not wines, because the original fermentation is grain based (the definition for beer). The fruit comes later, and is an excellent compliment to acidity of the lambic beer style. In the traditional method, the fruit is added during the maturation of the beer, causing a further fermentation.

An old German beer style from Leipzig, Gose is an unfiltered wheat beer made with 50-60% malted wheat, which creates a cloudy yellow color and provides a refreshing crispness and twang. A Gose will have a low hop bitterness and a complementary dryness and spice from the use of ground coriander seeds and a sharpness from the addition of salt. Like Berliner Weisse beers, a Gose will sometimes be laced with various flavored and colored syrups. This is to balance out the addition of lactic acid that is added to the boil. Somewhat recently, Gose has seen a mini-revival with a handful of breweries bringing back the style in the Leipziger area and pubs like Gosenschenke "Ohne Bedenken" serving traditionally brewed Gose. Average alcohol by volume (abv) range: 4.0-5.0%

Although bittering levels can greatly vary, expect common fruity, vinous, intense malts and sharp alcohol characteristics. The often racy but mellow attitude of the beer may also include acidic notes, raisins and black currants. Vintage varieties may have a low level of oxidation. Stronger versions may have similarities to a port wine. Brewers may also inoculate a portion of the batch with Brettanomyces lambicus and age for an extended period of time to achieve an old-school acidic character.

29	Sweet Jane Bottle India Pale Ale (IPA)-England Double Mtn. OR 6.0% Ale USA 3 TIX
The stars of the hop world. As with a number of brewing styles, IPA was born out of necessity. When the British were colonizing India, the beers they sent down to their troops kept spoiling during the long sea voyage. With an extra healthy dose of hops and alcohol (40-65 IBU and 5%-7.5% ABV respectively), both having great preservative value, their problems were solved, and the world had another distinctive beer style. Today, American craft brewers do more than emulate the style. They continue to push the envelope with strength and bitterness. Curiously, it‘s much harder to find a true IPA from England these days, with a few notable exceptions, which we will feature.

30	Vitus Bottle Weizen Bock-Germany Weihenstephan 7.7% Lager Germany 2 TIX
Wheat Doppelbock
All bocks were ales in the beginning. Weizenbock is the only member of the family that is still an ale, although it is usually lagered�yet not a lager. Those are two different things. Lagering a beer has to do with cold-temperature aging (the German word “lager” means “to store”). Just about any beer can be lagered. But it‘s the yeast type that still dictates whether a beer is classified as ale or lager. Whew! Anyway, weizenbocks are amazingly complex beers, with cloves, bananas, raisons, and caramel in the flavor, and often over 6% ABV. As wheat beers go, they are stronger than most in alcohol. They range from buckwheat to toffee in color.

Sour Belgian Pale
Belgian Pales consume the Belgian brewing scene, and were initially brewed to compete with Pilseners during the WWII time frame. They differ from other regional Pale Ale varieties, by traditionally being less bitter, using aged hops for a delicate hop finish, and boasting sweetish to toasty malt overtones. They should be decanted properly, leaving the yeast in the bottle. This will showcase their brilliant color range from pale straw yellow to amber hues. Most will be crowned with thick, clinging, rocky white heads. Flavors and aromas will vary. Some have natural spice characters from yeast and hops, while others are spiced. ABV range: 4%-7%

With an obscene ABV range of 7.5%-10%, just take an India Pale Ale and feed it steroids, ergo the term Double IPA. Although open to the same interpretation as its sister styles, you should expect something robust, malty, alcoholic and with a hop profile that might rip your tongue out. The Imperial usage comes from Russian Imperial stout, a style of strong stout originally brewed in England for the Russian Imperial Court of the late 1700s. Its application to an unrelated style makes little sense to many, so Double IPA is quickly becoming the preferred name. You can thank west coast American brewers for this somewhat reactionary style. "Thanks!"
31	Duister Bottle Porter-England Upright Brewery OR 8.5% Ale USA 4 TIX
Porter (collab w/ Oproer in Netherlands)
Porters were the first beer style in the world to achieve national distribution, due to the industrial revolution. The style can be dated to the early 1700‘s. It has been argued that porter takes its name from the train porters who used to sell their beer throughout the early British rail system. Another notion is that porter was first produced on a commercial scale in London on the River Thames, where it was sent out on ships bound for other port towns. The darkness of the beer covered up cloudiness and the roasty full flavor helped mask flavor defects. These were helpful beer style characteristics during a period when problems with consistency in brewing were commonplace. Today, porters range from 4%-6.5% ABV, and 20-40 IBU.
31	2015 Shades Bottle LIMITED Sour/Wild Ale Upright Brewery OR 8.0% Ale USA 5 TIX
Sour / Wild Ale, BA

31	Ostinato Bottle Saison/Farmhouse-American Upright Brewery OR 6.5% Ale USA 4 TIX

Sometimes a higher hop bitterness, but often moderate hop flavor/aroma, and lighter in color (straw/golden) than the Czech pils. Hallertau Hops are the German bittering signature, somewhere between 30-40 IBU. A slightly "cleaner" (crisper) version than the Czech.
32	Munich Dunkel Bottle Munich style dunkel-Germany Flensburg 4.8% Lager Germany 2 TIX
(German dark lager) Pronounced malty aroma and flavor that dominates over a clean crisp moderate hop bitterness. They can be chocolaty, chewy, and often exhibit a bread-like aroma, from the use of Munich malt. Colors range from light brown to dark brown.
32	Radler (Grapefruit) Bottle Fruit (non Lambic)-Countries vary Stiegl Brau 2.5% Lager Austria 2 TIX
This is a catch-all beer style for fruit beers, lambic-like or otherwise, which are not true lambics.

This is a catch-all beer style for fruit beers, lambic-like or otherwise, which are not true lambics.
32	Barock Hell Bottle Helles-Germany Weltenburger 5.6% Lager Germany 2 TIX
In many ways, the German Helles lagers embody the flavor profile that the large American mega-breweries are trying to capture. An excellent example of subtlety in beer making. 4.5%-5.5% ABV, and very low hops (18-25 IBU)
32	Primator Maibock Bottle Helles bock/ Maibock-Germany Primator 7.5% Lager Czech Rep. 2 TIX
Lighter in color (“helles” means light in German), with an average strength of 6%-7.5%. Hop bitterness is low, yet noble hop aroma may be at medium levels. (20-35 IBU)
32	Black Boss Bottle Porter-Baltic WITNICA 8.5% Ale Poland 1 TIX
Baltic porters, named after the region from which they come, vary greatly, both in strength (about 4.5% - 9% abv) and in brewing method. Some are actually bottom fermented (lager type). There are purists might agrue that they cannot then be classified as porters, a style which traces its origin to the great dark ales of England. To which we say, hey, give Lithuania and Poland a break. they've had a tough go of it.
32	Perla Pils Bottle Pilsner-Czech PERLA 6.0% Lager Poland 1 TIX
Originated in the town of Pilsen, of the Czech Republic. The most classic of pilseners. Their signature is the use of Saaz hops and a golden color. They are around 5% ABV. The most hop-forward classic lager brewing style in terms of flavor and aroma. The good kind of skunky.
32	Zhiguli Grande 9.5 Bottle Imperial Pilsner (various countries) RINKUSKIAI 9.4% Lager Lithuania 2 TIX
An fairly new extreme lager brewing style, born in the USA. Like IPAs, any beer style that includes the word “Imperial” is usually quite high in hops and most certainly higher in alcohol. Originally an invention of necessity, “Imperials” were usually beers that were made in one country and shipped to another, often bound for the lips of royalty (hence the name Imperial). It‘s another case of long journeys calling on the properties of higher alcohol and hops to act as preservatives.
33	Power 10,000 Bottle Strong Lager / Malt Liquor SOM 7.0% Lager India 2 TIX
Malt Likkah!
There's a time & place for everything right? This style is commonly bastardized into something cheap, powerful, and charcoal filtered here in America, but in other parts of the world you can find them made with quality ingredients, class, & finesse. Don't get us wrong. They still do the trick though.
33	Barista Chocolate Quad Bottle Quadrupel-Belgium Van Honsebrouck 11.0% Ale Belgium 4 TIX

4% - 7% in ABV, Kellerbier is an old and unique German beer style. Unfiltered and unpasteurized, these lagers date back to at least the Middle Ages.

Hop bitterness can be high and alcohol will vary.
33	Landbier Bottle Munich style dunkel-Germany Bayreuther 5.3% Lager Germany 2 TIX
(German dark lager) Pronounced malty aroma and flavor that dominates over a clean crisp moderate hop bitterness. They can be chocolaty, chewy, and often exhibit a bread-like aroma, from the use of Munich malt. Colors range from light brown to dark brown.
33	Cisk Lager Bottle Export Lager FARSON'S 4.2% Lager Malta Republic 2 TIX
Broad range term which applies to a large group of similar mainstream lager styles produced in many countries. The best are all-barley beers, with soft floral hop qualities. They range between 3.5%-5.5% ABV...the ultimate lawnmower beers of the world.
33	Echt Kriekenbier Bottle Flanders Oud Bruin-Belgium Verhaeghe 6.8% Ale Belgium 4 TIX
Flanders Red, Cherry
This classic style from Flanders Belgium combines malty sweetness with a sourness gained from several months of maturation (usually in metal tanks). The most complex examples have a secondary fermentation in the bottle. Oudenaarde is the most famous producing town, located in East Flanders. Oudenaarde's water is low in calcium and high in sodium carbonate, which gives a particularly textured character to the beers. Typical examples of Belgian browns come in three ages and strengths.
33	Abbey Wit Bottle White (Wit) Bier/(Biere Blanche)-Belgium St. Bernardus 5.5% Ale Belgium 2 TIX
This traditional witbier has been developed under supervision of the father of Hoegaarden and Celis White, master brewer Pierre Celis. This beer has been bottle-refermented, which lent it its specific taste.
Witbier was originally popularized in Hoegaarden, a small town in a wheat-growing region east of Brussels and Leuven. This style is usually made from equal portions of raw wheat and malted barley, spiced with ground coriander seeds and dried orange peels. The fruitiness imparted by the wheat blends well with the orange and coriander. The style is further characterized by the use of noble-type hops. Wheat beers are identified as being "white" in several brewing nations. Wheat beers can be filtered, but less easily than those made from barley malt. They usually tip the scale around 5% ABV.
34	Komes Porter Baltycki Bottle Porter-Baltic Fortuna 9.0% Ale Poland 2 TIX
Baltic porters, named after the region from which they come, vary greatly, both in strength (about 4.5% - 9% abv) and in brewing method. Some are actually bottom fermented (lager type). There are purists might agrue that they cannot then be classified as porters, a style which traces its origin to the great dark ales of England. To which we say, hey, give Lithuania and Poland a break. they've had a tough go of it.
34	Perry Miloslawski Bottle Cider (Apple or Pear) Fortuna 4.5% Cider Poland 2 TIX
Fermented and brewed like beer, but using fruit (usually pear or apple) as the basis for alcohol production. Ciders can range from 5%-8%, but usually hover around 6% ABV. England made them famous, but France also produces exceptional examples. In recent years, the United States is getting in the game as well.
34	The Rusty Nail Bottle Stout (Imperial-Countries vary) Fremont Brewery WA 13.2% Ale USA 6 TIX

This is a catch-all beer style for fruit beers, lambic-like or otherwise, which are not true lambics.
35	Tart Cherry Berliner Weisse Bottle Berliner Weisse-Germany North Coast CA 4.1% Ale USA 2 TIX
The lightest of all the German style wheat beers. This highly carbonated, low alcohol (3%-3.5% ABV), low hopped beer is most famous for its tartness, due to the combination of a yeast and lactic acid bacteria fermentation. Fruity esters are evident as well. Bier de Garde: French: Often bronze or amber. Originally a strong, top-fermenting, bottle-conditioned brew intended for cellaring. May have caramel flavors from long boil. Today, they are often bottom-fermented and filtered. 4.4%-7.5% ABV.
35	Le Merle Saison Bottle Saison, Classic-Belgium North Coast CA 7.9% Ale USA 2 TIX
The Saison style began as a pale ale brewed in the cooler, less active months in farmhouses in Wallonia Belgium, and stored for the summer drinking. These farmhouse beers would have been of a lower ABV than modern saisons. Brewing outside the summer months was common before the discovery of refrigeration, due to the likelihood of the beer spoiling while fermenting in the summer. After brewing, the beer was stored until the summer when the main consumers would be seasonal farm workers ("saisonniers"). Historically, saisons did not share enough identifiable characteristics to pin them down as a specific style, but rather were a group of refreshing summer ales made by farmers. Each farm brewer would make his own distinctive version. The modern style has been largely defined by Saison Dupont, a beer that's been made in Tourpes Belgium since the late 1800's. In the late 1980's or early 90's an importer stared selling Saison Dupont in the U.S. and the rest is history. Today Dupont is widely regarded as the standard bearer of the style. Modern saisons are generally highly carbonated, fruity and spicy�sometimes from the addition of spices.
35	Barrel Aged Old Rasputin Bottle Stout (Imperial-Countries vary) North Coast CA 12.0% Ale USA 7 TIX
Barrel Aged Old Rasputin
Typical alcohol contents exceed 8% ABV, with an extremely rich malty flavor balanced by assertive hopping, and a fruity-ester character. Originally brewed as a winter warmer, for sale in the Tsarist Russian Empire. It is medium dry and distinguished by its great strength.
35	Duvel Golden Bottle Belgian Strong Golden (BSG) Duvel USA 8.5% Ale Belgium 3 TIX
Pale in color and usually rather bubbly, this style is usually filtered. This, and to some degree strength, are key differences between it and Belgian Triples. The most famous are strong ones like Duvel, at 8.5% ABV. The name is Flemish for Devil. It is not uncommon to find Strong goldens over 10%. There are many beers in this style who carry a name associated with Satan. In fact, there's one called Satan. And Lucifer, and Belzebuth, Horny Devil, etc.
35	Goudenband Bottle Flanders Oud Bruin-Belgium LEIFMANS 8.0% Ale Belgium 3 TIX
This classic style from Flanders Belgium combines malty sweetness with a sourness gained from several months of maturation (usually in metal tanks). The most complex examples have a secondary fermentation in the bottle. Oudenaarde is the most famous producing town, located in East Flanders.

This is a catch-all beer style for fruit beers, lambic-like or otherwise, which are not true lambics.
36	Bourbon Barrel Quad Bottle Quadrupel-Belgium Boulevard MO 11.0% Ale USA 2 TIX
Based loosely on the The Sixth Glass, this quadrupel is separated into a number of oak bourbon barrels where it ages for varying lengths of time, some for up to three years. Cherries are added to make up for the "angel's share" of beer lost during barrel aging.
With an ABV range of 9% - 13% and inspired by the Trappist brewers of Belgium, a Quadrupel is a Belgian style ale of great strength with bolder flavor compared to its Dubbel and Tripel sister styles. Typically a dark creation that ranges within the deep red, brown and garnet hues. Full bodied with a rich malty palate. Phenols are usually at a moderate level. Sweet with a low bitterness yet a well perceived alcohol.

36	Chimay Cinq Cents (White) Bottle Tripel-Belgium Chimay (Trappist) 8.0% Ale Belgium 4 TIX
Tripel: Probably the most pervasive style of the Abbey Ale sub-categories, tripels are lighter in color, yet higher in strength, usually over 8% ABV. It has been written that tripels use three times the normal amount of malt, dubbels twice as much, etc. True or not, tripels are fine examples of a light color/high strength beer style. Tripels can be very dry to very sweet, showing more range within their category than the other sub-styles.
36	Chimay Premiere (Red) Bottle Dubbel-Belgium Chimay (Trappist) 7.0% Ale Belgium 4 TIX
Dubbels tend to be darker in color, but vary in strength and flavor profile. Dubbels are largely malt forward, with roasty qualities. They typically range from 6.5% to 8% ABV.

36	Moment of Clarity Bottle Double (Imperial) IPA (USA) Hopworks OR 8.0% Ale USA 2 TIX
With an obscene ABV range of 7.5%-10%, just take an India Pale Ale and feed it steroids, ergo the term Double IPA. Although open to the same interpretation as its sister styles, you should expect something robust, malty, alcoholic and with a hop profile that might rip your tongue out. The Imperial usage comes from Russian Imperial stout, a style of strong stout originally brewed in England for the Russian Imperial Court of the late 1700s. Its application to an unrelated style makes little sense to many, so Double IPA is quickly becoming the preferred name. You can thank west coast American brewers for this somewhat reactionary style. "Thanks!"
36	Ferocious Citrus IPA Bottle India Pale Ale (IPA)-England Hopworks OR 6.4% Ale USA 1 TIX
Wheat IPA w/ grapefruit juice
The stars of the hop world. As with a number of brewing styles, IPA was born out of necessity. When the British were colonizing India, the beers they sent down to their troops kept spoiling during the long sea voyage. With an extra healthy dose of hops and alcohol (40-65 IBU and 5%-7.5% ABV respectively), both having great preservative value, their problems were solved, and the world had another distinctive beer style. Today, American craft brewers do more than emulate the style. They continue to push the envelope with strength and bitterness. Curiously, it‘s much harder to find a true IPA from England these days, with a few notable exceptions, which we will feature.
36	Wednesday Cat White Bottle White (Wit) Bier/(Biere Blanche)-Belgium Yo-Ho Brewery 5.0% Ale Japan 4 TIX
Witbier was originally popularized in Hoegaarden, a small town in a wheat-growing region east of Brussels and Leuven.

37	Blue Glacier (Blue Yam Lager) Bottle Happoshu (Japan) ABASHIRI BEER 5.0% Lager Japan 3 TIX
You only live once. Drink some blue yam lager. You're my boy Blue. You're my boy.
Japanese beer companies produce what's called "Happoshu," which is sparkling low malt beverage. Since the tax for Happoshu is much less than the tax for beer, happoshu is cheaper than beer. For that reason, Happoshu has become very popular in Japan. Happoshu classification occurs when an ingredient other than malt, hops, rice, corn, kaoliang, potato, starch, or sugar is used, or if the malt ratio is less than 67%.
37	Prohibition Bottle Cider (Apple or Pear) Sea Cider Farm 13.0% Cider Canada 5 TIX

England made them famous, but France also produces exceptional examples. In recent years, the United States is getting in the game as well.
37	Fresh Flow Bottle India Pale Ale (IPA)-American Block 15 OR 6.5% Ale USA 2 TIX

37	Wandelpad Bottle Blonde-Belgium Block 15 OR 6.0% Ale USA 2 TIX
Often aromatic and fruity-tasting, some Belgian Blondes are at a conventional alcohol content of 5% ABV. But the majority range between 6.5% & 8%, after which point they are often referred to as Strong Golden, or a triple. One key difference is that the blondes are often bottle conditioned, which makes them similar to Belgian triples in style...kind of like the kid brother. The Strong Goldens tend to be filtered more often.
37	Dubbel or Nothing Bottle Dubbel-Belgium MONKLESS BELGIAN ALES OR 7.2% Ale USA 3 TIX
Dubbels tend to be darker in color, but vary in strength and flavor profile. Dubbels are largely malt forward, with roasty qualities. They typically range from 6.5% to 8% ABV.

38	Schwarz Bottle Schwartzbier HEATER ALLEN OR 5.0% Lager USA 2 TIX
Schwarzbier / Black Pils
Schwarzbier means "black beer" in German. It is a reference to color only. But unlike other dark beers (porters or stouts) they are not overly bitter due to the roasted malt characteristics found in other common dark beer styles. Hops supply bitterness & dryness in the case of schwartzbier. A very refreshing style, and pilsner-like to a degree. They are typically more hop-forward that a regular "helles" German lager. So much so that people often refer to the style as "Black Pils".
38	Das Bier (Kolsch) Bottle Kolsch-Germany HEATER ALLEN OR 5.3% Ale USA 2 TIX
A golden top-fermenting beer that originated in Cologne. Medium bodied and usually around 5% abv.

Port Barrel Belgian Strong Dark
Before the term "Quadruppel" was "invented" by La Trappe for commercial purposes, Quads would have been grouped (and still should be) in this category. While not unheard of, Belgian Strong Dark Ales are not usually flavored as are many Belgians, save for a little candy sugar to help increase the alcohol. They are typical dark in color in, and some are completely opaque. They range between 9%-12% in strength and offer great complexity & depth. These are very rich and flavorful beers with very little or no percievable hop character.
38	Anareta Bottle LIMITED Saison/Farmhouse-American Holy Mountain Brewing Co. WA 7.5% Ale USA 4 TIX
Blueberry Saison / Farmhouse, BA
