Which Beer Styles Do Drinkers Misunderstand the Most?

There are a lot of myths about beers and beer styles:

All dark beers are not heavy.
An English-style Bitter (ESB) isn’t necessarily going to be bitter.
Stouts aren’t just for cold seasons. (Seriously, drink them whenever you want.)

We asked brewers and tap room workers to tell us which beer styles they think drinkers misunderstand the most. Watch the video above to see what they told us.

If any of their answers prod you to dig deeper, our Beer Styles guide has great facts on more than 75 of the most popular craft beer styles. Beer learning is the best kind of learning.

Cheers!
