Keep reading for a brief introduction to the various types of craft beer so you can figure out what to order when you come to our restaurant.
- Lager – The first type of craft beer you should know is lager. Lagers are brewed at lower temperatures than other types of beer, giving them a lighter color and taste.
- Ales – Another popular type of craft beer is ale. Compared to lagers, ales are brewed at higher temperatures, and they can range in color from relatively light and golden to a deep black. They also have a more robust flavor profile and are somewhat higher in alcohol by volume.
- •Pale Ales – When you hear people talk about craft beer, you will often hear them talk about pale ales. As the name suggests, these tend to be on the lighter end of the color spectrum, and they have a crisp flavor that often features hops (a common flavoring agent in beer).
- Stout – A fourth type of craft beer is stout. You can think of stout as similar to a dark roast coffee or a dark chocolate. It is both darker in color than most other beers, and it has a flavor profile characterized by roasted, caramelized notes.
