These brews can range from the greatest liquids ever invented to projectile vomit inducing containers of WTF.

There are many excellent and popular beers that are brewed with predominantly traditional ingredients and processes yet their character may distinctively vary from styles currently defined or included in these guidelines. For example a brewer may formulate a dark stout but may use lager yeast rather than ale yeast and dry hop with hops more typically used for German-style pilsener. Or perhaps a beer falls distinctively out of the color, alcohol or bitterness range of defined styles. This category recognizes distinctively undefined beers. They may be light or dark, strong or weak, hoppy or not hoppy.
