beers distinctively not defined in any recognized style in these guidelines.

They may be light or dark, strong or weak, hoppy or not hoppy. They may have

characters which are unique to yeast, fermentation techniques, aging conditions,

carbonation level - or higher or lower levels of profound characters normally
