2023 Emerald Coast Beer Fest Registration
Beers Registered (18)
HAZY IPA
Specialty IPA
Draft
Recognizable as an IPA by balance – a hop-forward, bitter, dryish beer – with something else present to distinguish it from the standard categories. Should have good drinkability, regardless of the form. Excessive harshness and heaviness are typically faults, as are strong flavor clashes between the hops and the other specialty ingredients.
Bret IPA
Specialty IPA
Draft
Recognizable as an IPA by balance – a hop-forward, bitter, dryish beer – with something else present to distinguish it from the standard categories.

berry Saison
Specialty Fruit Beer
Draft
A harmonious marriage of fruit, sugar, and beer, but still recognizable as a beer. The fruit and sugar character should both be evident but in balance with the beer, not so forward as to suggest an artificial product.
Cucumber Saison
Mixed-Style Beer
Draft
Based on the declared base styles. As with all Specialty-Type Beers, the resulting combination of beer styles needs to be harmonious and balanced, and be pleasant to drink.

A substantial, malty dark beer with a complex and flavorful dark malt character.

Draft

Draft
Varies, but should be a unique experience.
Rainy Day Red
Irish Red Ale
Draft
An easy-drinking pint, often with subtle flavors. Slightly malty in the balance sometimes with an initial soft toffee/caramel sweetness, a slightly grainy-biscuity palate, and a touch of roasted dryness in the finish. Some versions can emphasize the caramel and sweetness more, while others will favor the grainy palate and roasted dryness.
ABV: 3.8% to 5%
IBU: 18 to 28
La Petite Orange Blanc
Belgian Pale Ale
Package
A moderately malty, somewhat fruity, easy-drinking, copper-colored Belgian ale that is somewhat less aggressive in flavor profile than many other Belgian beers. The malt character tends to be a bit biscuity with light toasty, honey-like, or caramelly components; the fruit character is noticeable and complementary to the malt. The bitterness level is generally moderate, but may not seem as high due to the flavorful malt profile.
ABV: 4.8% to 5.5%
IBU: 20 to 30
Summer Solstice Cream Ale
Cream Ale
Draft
A clean, well-attenuated, flavorful American "lawnmower" beer. Easily drinkable and refreshing, with more character than typical American lagers.
ABV: 4.2% to 5.6%
IBU: 8 to 20
Guava Cider
Specialty Cider/Perry
Draft
ABV: 5% to 12%
