Periodic Table of Beer Styles

Can you tell I like to post pictures on forums yet?

I like it. Saved. Pictures are good, especially useful one.

No spiced beers? lol... nice table. I will definitely print this out when I get home.

Wow, very cool. I like it, a lot.

Ooh, I like. I hope all that dark background looks OK printed on our crappy printer here at work. This'll look good on the wall.

Brilliant!

Very nice, is there room for BJCP and GABF style #'s.

Thats awsome.

I have a feeling this will be printed out, framed, and hung in our brew room!

x2 Very Nice!

I see Baltic Porter is MIA. But it's still cool!

My only complaint is that I wouldn't group fruit beers in with all the sours.

Steam Beer is Trade Marked...

How are people printing this out?? When I move it over to word to print, I can't read the information on the chart anymore. Very cool though.

Can someone help a complete tech noob on the best way to print a crisp copy of this???

Pretty cool, but shouldn't they be listed in increasing OG or something? A major component of the actual periodic table is the listing by atomic number.

PC Im assuming? Right click, the jpeg once you save it. The third option is print. It will probably bring up the default Microsoft printing dialogue. Go through the Wizard it brings up. That should work better than bringing it into Word. If you have any sort of photo editing program, print it from that.

could someone please post the picture in the HBT gallery, I can't see it otherwise.

I think it's a choice you have to make when adapting the periodic table of elements to a completely different set of data. The gravities generally do increase as you go down the columns and left to right, but there are exceptions that help maintain a better overall order, like having Belgian Pale in the same row as American Pale and Ordinary Bitter.

Epic...thanks.

This is freakin' awesome. I used one of those poster maker websites to turn it into a poster. It's an 8 page .pdf that you print out and mat together.

It appears that someone reads reddit.com

One of the catalog houses, sorry but I forget which one, has a T-shirt like this that says "Beeriodic Table".
I've been threatening to buy one.

Might've been Midwest.

Some chemist had too much time on his hands!

You're not kidding! It appears to be the same table, with a slightly different graphic design.

Needs darts for those inspirational moments.

I have this one too in very large format. It is black/white but huge. 2mb file. I printed yesterday at work on our plotter. Here is the site I got it from

http://www.beersforengineers.com/BeerPeriodicTable.jpg

I went to the above mentioned site (mantisdesign) to purchase one and they do not have any. Something with the publisher. They are having troubles reproducing it. I searched other places and could not find one to purchase.

Is this the same table on the Midwestsupplies.com t-shirts?

Thats great! Thanks

A redditor (www.reddit.com) took that design and made the OP picture based on it. It's his first major foray into Photoshop. Here's his thread:
http://www.reddit.com/r/beer/comments/aejzk/periodic_table_of_beer_styles/

There he has links to ones with a white background, grey background, and the *.psd file.

Thanks, the jpgs were giving my eyes the fantods

Your table just improved my Doppelbock. It's 1.028 FG was previously out of range everywhere I looked but now I can RDWHADB.

Background, t4t

why no baltic porter?

it's bjcp recognized....

Saw it on digg.



Missing a few styles to say the least, and a couple of styles aren't really distinct styles but I liked it. I also don't understand how some of the styles in the mixed category ended up there.

It took me 2 years to memorize the elemental table but 56 seconds to have this burned into my mind.

I bought a t-shirt with this on it about 11 years ago at the Great Taste of the Midwest.

So did this guy, yesterday. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f14/periodic-table-beer-styles-152106/

There's also another neat table in that thread.
