time to play the "can you name this style by the pictures" game.

[emjay]

Is it perhaps a Trappist ale?

Unfair. That encompasses more than just a single style.

Kinda what I was thinking =)

 

[emjay]

Sorry for the delay... here it is.



I've used this glass for many of the beers I've posted here, but this time it's actually the proper one!

Weissbier

Did you miss the clue, or do you really have no idea of what you're looking at?

Looks like a bitter on a foggy day in London.

Nope.

It's a [redacted] on an admittedly rainy, foggy day, but indoors with a phone camera under bad fluorescent lighting... in Canada.

BTW... just for everybody's information, I'm looking for as specific an answer as I can get. If the "style" you name includes, but is not limited to, the specific style pictured, I'm not going to accept it.

Esb

Apa - this guess was for the picture that someone removed.

 

[Reno_eNVy]

Ordinary Bitter

 

[RandomBeerGuy]

Dubble?

 

[nocsimian]

Reminds me of a Samuel Smith glass but definitely not one of their stouts. Can't recall ever pouring their lager (always liked the heft of their bottles for drinking) but I'm going to go with Organic Lager.

I really don't know. It looks like a weissbier glass but shorter.

Geeze if I wanted another abusive relationship I'd take back my ex-wife

Consolation guess:
Vienna Lager

 

[Reno_eNVy]

Yeah I don't think it was the glass itself... more like what's on it.

Here's the clue you missed

 

[Gridlocked]

I have one of "them there" Oatmeal Stouts in the fridge. I just might crack that bastard later tonight... mmmm stouty.

 

[doctorRobert]

northern english brown

 

[mcbethenstein]

I'll finish out the category with "special" bitter.

P.s. in my knowledge that glass is a "pub pint" glass... Which means English beer.

 

[emjay]

All wrong. But a couple are on the right track

I don't think this style has been used before, btw.

Bier de Garde

Bier de Garde

As much as I love Samuel Smith's Bier de Garde... no.

 

[heferly]

English cider

 

[blizzard]

Nut Brown Ale

 

[mcbethenstein]

Sam smith's India ale... Aka English IPA

 

[emjay]

It's beer

And no.

I will add, it's not a BJCP style on it's own, but is considered part of a broader style (which IS a BJCP style). It's even specifically mentioned in the guidelines for that broader BJCP style.

This comment is especially revealing, and is typical of, but not always reminiscent to other comments made by emjay not only in this thread but in other threads showing certain similarities to this thread.

 

[emjay]

I tried to clear it up a bit

 

[dcHokie]

Mild?

 

[Cascadegan]

Does it start with 's' ?
