As category context only, the Brewers Association guideline for Kellerbier or Zwickelbier covers unfiltered versions of European lager or ale styles, typically slightly hazy to moderately cloudy, with ABV, IBU and color following the underlying style. The brewery sells Safety Dance as a pilsner; no unfiltered version is described, so how the entered beer met the unfiltered expectation is not published.
