Beer and Food
The overriding principle of beer and food matching is to match the flavour intensity of the beer to the flavour intensity of the food.
So, delicate fish or a salad needs a delicate beer (either ale or lager – as they can both be elegant); whilst a clonking great beef stew needs a powerful beer, brimming with a hefty quantity of barley and hops.
Or if your lemon sole screams out for lemon or melted butter, go for a beer with a light, lemony tinge or one with a soft buttery suppleness. And if a hot chocolate pudding would be good with a raspberry sauce, then a raspberry beer will also hit the spot.
Experiment and enjoy!

Beer and Valentine’s Day – a better combination than you’d think
Posted: February 12, 2010
It’s Valentine’s Day on Sunday – not that you needed me to tell you that. You can’t pick up a newspaper this week without reading an article by a dating guru, or indeed look anywhere without seeing an ad telling you to buy or do something unlikely to celebrate it. With that in mind, I…
