Se suele decir que existen tantas variedades de cervezas, como cerveceros hay en el mundo. Incluso, dentro de un mismo estilo, cada cerveza es única (sabores, olores, colores,…).
Para que os hagais una idea de la cantidad de familias y estilos de cerveza que existen con algunos ejemplos de marcas comerciales, aquí teneis el siguiente mural de la cerveza (lo podeis ver como imagen de alta resolución):
La clasificación más sencilla, es la de diferenciar las cervezas en dos grandes grupos según el tipo de fermentación: cervezas de baja fermentación o cervezas LAGER y cervezas de alta fermentación o cervezas ALE (grupo en las que se incluyen además las cervezas de fermentación espontanea o también denominadas LAMBIC).
Esta clasificación por si sola es demasiado genérica, teniendo en cuenta tanta variedad de cervezas. Yo utilizo para el uso diario una clasificación visual de estilos en forma de tabla periódica (similar a la tabla periódica de los elementos químicos), que partiendo de los dos grupos anteriores (ALE o LAGER), agrupa las cervezas primero en subgrupos o familias (20) que comparten alguna caracteristica que las diferencia de otro subgrupo (lugar de procedencia, componente utilizado en su elaboración, color,…) y luego dentro de cada familia clasifica las cervezas en estilos (65) (según la clasificación o la publicación que utilices, pueden ser más o menos).
Como cada estilo puede ser bastante amplio, en la descripción se incluyen los rangos habituales relativos a la densidad inicial, densidad final, % alcohol en volumen, los IBUS (unidades internacionales de amargor), SRM (color según el Método Estandar de Referencia) y una muestra del rango de color, en los que se mueven las cervezas de cada estilo.
Esta guía, utilizada por profesionales y cerveceros avanzados (organizadores y jueces de concursos de cerveza…), clasifica las cervezas en 23 Familias y un total de 81 estilos, y establece las caracteristicas de la cerveza que pertenece a cada uno de los estilos, como son el aroma, aspecto y sabor, la sensación en boca, impresiones generales y comentarios, los ingredientes, la historia del estilo, los rangos habituales de densidad inicial, densidad final, graduación alcoholica, los IBUS (unidades internacionales de amargor), SRM (color según el Método Estandar de Referencia) a los que denomina “Estadisticas vitales” y hace referencia a ejemplos de marcas comerciales para cada estilo.
