11 Obscure Beer Styles That Are Worth a Try

Sure, stouts, India pale ales, and hefeweizens are tasty, but if you want to venture away from the beaten path for your next beer, give one of these styles a shot.

1. GRODZISKIE (GRÄTZER)

A smoky wheat ale that originated in Poland, Grodziskie is a long-lost cousin of Berliner weisse.

Lichtenhainer is a very similar German take on the style that historically tended to be wilder and sourer in character.
