This led to a revival of traditional brewing techniques and experimentation with new ingredients, resulting in a diverse range of beer styles and flavors.

The flavor profile of a craft beer selection is incredibly diverse, ranging from hoppy and bitter to malty and sweet, with a wide spectrum of aromas.
Flavors depend entirely on the specific beers included in the selection. Common flavor profiles include: - **Hoppy Beers (IPAs, Pale Ales):** Citrus (grapefruit, lemon), pine, floral, resinous, and sometimes tropical fruit notes, with varying degrees of bitterness. - **Malty Beers (Stouts, Porters, Brown Ales):** Caramel, toffee, chocolate, roasted coffee, nutty, and bread-like flavors, often with a sweeter finish. - **Wheat Beers (Hefeweizen, Witbier):** Banana, clove, bubblegum, citrus, and coriander flavors, often with a light and refreshing profile. - **Sour Beers (Gueuze, Lambic):** Tart, acidic, funky, and fruity flavors, often with a complex and evolving profile. - **Lagers (Pilsner, Lager):** Clean, crisp, and refreshing, with subtle malt and hop flavors.

Glassware Matters
Different beer styles are best served in specific types of glassware to enhance aroma, flavor, and presentation. For example, a tulip glass is often used for IPAs to showcase hop aromas.
Serving Temperature
The ideal serving temperature varies depending on the beer style. Generally, lighter beers are served colder than darker beers. Lagers and Pilsners are often served very cold, while stouts and porters are served closer to room temperature.
Tasting Notes
Take a moment to observe the beer's appearance, smell the aromas, and savor the flavors. Pay attention to the balance of sweetness, bitterness, and acidity.
