If you have ever stepped into the world of craft beer, you know it can be sort of overwhelming. Beer styles number in the hundreds, and variations on those styles are virtually infinite. It would be a colossal feat to cover all of these beers in a single article, so instead, we will go over some of the commonly brewed styles that help brewers categorize their creations.
After all, brewing is inherently experimental, and to brewers, style guidelines can be strict rules or a platform to try something new.
Let's dive into some of the more important beer flavours and mouthfeels being brewed today.

Flavour ProfileHopsMalt

Tasting notesAn IPA that is light in colour, using a well-balanced pale base malt bill with some specialty malts from Germany thrown in to give it some complexity. The hops present big, fruit driven notes coupled with a piny, resinous backbone that makes your tongue fury (in a good way, promise). -
