Lager – This is the simplest and easiest drinking beer which ranges from the lightest to a little bit darker. If a customer asks for something light these are your go to beers!

Ale – An ale is another classic style of beer. Ales tend to be more complex and can be lighter, while others have more hops.

Wheat – Wheat beer is a style for a beginner, or someone looking for a lighter beer. They are light, easy drinking beers. A lot of wheat beers will have a slight citrus characteristic.

IPA – This is the beer that is measured in hops and is described as a bitter beer. The more hops, the more bitter the beer. IPAs can be very different however, so be aware of which style you’re ordering. IPAs will have a fruity, citrus-like earthy, or piney taste to them.

Pale Ale – The little brother to the IPA. Pale ales will have less bitterness than the IP A and the result is an easier drinking, hoppy beer.

Belgian – A beer that can range from amber to blonde in color and offers numerous styles. These are typically defined by little to no hop flavor while offering a sometimes spicier or sweeter finish on the palate.

Brown Ale – A beer that offers more of a full-bodied taste. Brown ales are malty beers which are full flavored. They can be richer and sometimes have a nutty taste to them. These beers are extremely food friendly and go with pretty much everything!

Stout/Porter – These beers are different in style and brewing process, but can still be classified in the same category. This is considered a “dark” beer ( along with brown ales) which contain flavors such as roasted malts, choco­late, and coffee.
