Spice, Herb, or Vegetable Beer — BJCP Style Information

Category:	Spice/Herb/Vegetable Beer
Number:	21A

A harmonious marriage of spices, herbs and/or vegetables and beer. The key attributes of the underlying style will be different with the addition of spices, herbs and/or vegetables; do not expect the base beer to taste the same as the unadulterated version. Judge the beer based on the pleasantness and balance of the resulting combination.
