Great beer to pair with BBQ

IPA is a complimentary flavor that pairs nicely with the char on grilled food, this is due to the hoppiness found in most IPAs.

Pilsner style lagers are clean and light, ideal for pairing with the beginning of a meal, grilled veggies, or dessert. This is due to the light color, and refreshing finish.

Amber Ales are a great because they are generally balanced in both hop and malt. (Though different brewers will have different levels of both.) This balance makes amber ale a complimentary pairing with beef and barbecue sauce, or a contrasting pairing for something light like grilled veggies and fish. The sweeter amber ales are ideal for veggie burgers and poultry thanks to the caramel notes and nuttiness.

Porter with its coffee and chocolate notes is perfect for the deep flavors of red meats that have been charred or smoked.

Wheat beers are light, sweet, and citrusy and can be placed anywhere on the tasting menu. They’re all around easy for sipping; the low hop ratio is ideal for novice beer drinkers and connoisseurs alike.

Fruit ales imbued with hints of mango and pineapple are perfect to taste alongside lighter fare such as seafood, grilled fruit, and veggies.

Smoked Beer. Yes. You read that correctly. Smoked beer or Rauchbier is a German beer that is ideally paired with protein. The smokiness is a perfect compliment to beef and most other red meats.
