Belgian and French Origin Ale · Brewers Association 2025
Beers in this category recognize the uniqueness and traditions of Belgian brewing, but do not hew to any other Belgian-style categories defined elsewhere in these guidelines. Balance is a key component when assessing these beers. Wood and barrel-aged versions which exhibit sensory attributes of wood-aging are categorized here. Fruited versions are categorized as Belgian-style fruit beers. When using these guidelines as the basis for evaluating entries at competitions, brewers may be asked to provide supplemental information about entries in this category to allow for accurate evaluation of diverse entries. Such information might include an underlying Belgian beer style not otherwise defined in these guidelines or other information unique to the entry such as ingredients or processing (dry hopping, wood-aging, etc.) which influence perceived sensory outcomes.
