Specialty Styles

This year the specialty styles will be included with each parent category.

Beers entered into a specialty style may use ingredients or processes that would be out of style in any of the existing formal styles.

To assist judging of the specialty style, entrants should also specify which related or secondary AABC style their beer fits in to from the list below:

17.1 Fruit Beer
17.2 Spice, Herb or vegetable Beer
18.2 Classic Style Smoked Beer
18.3 Specialty Smoked Beer
18.4 Wood Aged Beer
18.5 Specialty Wood Aged Beer
18.6 Belgian Specialty Ale
18.9 Experimental Beer

Specialty style entries must have a description of what special ingredients or processes have been used.

We would like brewers entering the specialty styles to give us as much information as possible about their beer. To help the judges we will need the following information:

• Any special ingredients or processes that have been used
• Which AABC category does the beer fit into and why
