Beer Archives

There is endless choice when it comes to beer today. The United States alone is closing in on 10,000 breweries, which offer interpretations of both traditional and modern styles. It’s excellent news for beer, a wonderful and dynamic beverage that—in this seasoned beer writer’s opinion—taps into creativity and flavor more than its other alcoholic counterparts. Adding it to a night out (or in) yields endless options for social settings and food pairings. Still, with all the available choices, certain styles of beers tend to capture the lion’s share of attention from drinkers. In the craft space, it's the hazy or juicy IPA—a floral, fruity, full-bodied and hop-forward ale. In the mainstream, it's a light lager—often bland, but refreshing. Because of this, many new beer drinkers often overlook other styles that, I believe, make up the foundation of the beer-drinking experience, whether it be robust stouts, earthy farmhouse ales or bracing sours. So, where should the fledgling beer aficionado begin? The following are suggestions that range in style, abv and appearance that, with a bit of open-mindedness, can spark a real appreciation for the hoppy, malty drink. Use this as a roadmap for your journey into the dynamic world of beer. TOP-SELLER Personalized Beer Stein In Stock | $60.00 Shop Now
