Styles you prefer watery?

Your avatar is pure win. Another fallen hero.

I do not like watery beer, but if I was to choose, I would say some sort of APA or low abv AIPA. Finches IPA, Lagunitas IPA, Zombie Dust (not watery!). Something like that.

 

American Pale Ale.
Amber Lager.
Blonde Ale.

Most of the time I prefer my brews to have a vicious malt body.

 

I can't think of any that I would prefer watery. Although in the summer months a good witbier with a light and spice body is very refreshing.
I'll drink a stout in the summer if the mood strikes me.

 

In the dead of summer, a lower-ABV, less than full-bodied saison is often exactly what I want.

 

Now that's an interesting question. I don't typically like "watery", washed out beer, and don't necessarily agree that Zombie Dust is thin/watered, but I can appreciate your point. Summers are great for easier bodied styles like wits and American pale wheats, and as you alluded to, most anything with hops that doesn't cross into the syrup spectrum with the malt balance is excellently refreshing in the heat.

 

I would like to my acrylics really watery.

 

Water.

 

Why is watery considered a fault in beer ? It was after all conceived as a drink to be consumed in quantity to slake thirst.There are thousands of low gravity beers out there which are a delight to drink and which seduce you into having another pint and then another and another.

 

Watery is putting a negative term on something that's not negative at all: low gravity beers. I prefer low gravity beers to high gravity beers almost all of the time. I'd never call any of them watery.

 

No, I don't prefer any beer style to be watery.

 

Exactly.

This question is like aksing who prefers their stouts dark?

 

"low abv styles I like"

 

Forgot to mention Otter Creek Citra Mantra.

 

Watery implies no carbonation. I don't want any beer to be watery.

 

not really IMO have you had a flat imperial stout....? it's not very watery.

by watery In this topic I think it's like wet vs dry mouthfeel.

 

It also implies a thin body. Water is flat and has a gravity of 1.000.

 

Amen!!!

 

Neither thin nor watery is equivalent to light-bodied. Beers with lighter bodies should be neither of those things, and there are plenty of styles that would be difficult to drink with heavier, richer, more robust bodies. Watery is a bad thing, as is thin, which people only fail to understand because they're thinking of a light body as either or both of those.

 

I can't think of any watery beer that I would like. But I do like one beer style on the "thin", I.e low abv side - German hefeweizen
