If it is true that we are used to hear about matching food and wine, it is equally true that beer, when associated with certain flavors, in an unexpected way, can enrich the flavor of many dishes. Which is the best matching that highlights the five senses?

\n

Although there are no tough and fixed rules for beer and food pairing, there are some guidelines that can help you to evaluate a particularly appropriate approach: generally speaking, assonance is the best matching of beer and food.<\/p>\n

Light beers such as the\u00a0Pilsner\u00a0<\/em>one and other\u00a0Lager\u00a0<\/em>varieties, for example, are perfect with bread, raw fish, fresh cheeses and desserts; on the contrary, the special caramel or roasted malts of some\u00a0craft beers<\/strong>\u00a0go perfectly with white meats and medium-aged cheeses.<\/p>\n

In addition there are the flavors of different kind of aged cheeses like pecorino that match very well with the different varieties of\u00a0Ale\u00a0<\/em>or\u00a0Stout\u00a0<\/em>or even the blue-veined cheeses such as the spicy gorgonzola cheese or grilled red meats that are enhanced by the pairing of a beer with a strong character like the\u00a0abbey beers<\/em>, more alcoholic and structured.<\/p>\n

The more followed trend seems to be the\u00a0pairing per assonance<\/strong>, but even this is not always true.<\/p>\n

In pairing beer-food, more and more often people speak of contrasts.<\/p>\n

Which is the most refined pairing?<\/p>\n

For the moment,\u00a0the matching of sweet-spicy flavors<\/strong>\u00a0seems to win over everyone.<\/p>\n

Examples of this are the many pairings of the typical spicy Mexican or Indian dishes and the classic\u00a0Lagers<\/em>, where the main aromatic note is the sweetness of hops (Light Lager<\/em>\u00a0for example).<\/p>\n

In fact, the fresh and light beers, with low alcohol, are able to quench the burning sensation of the pepper, the paprika or other spices such as curry and, at the same time, they can enhance the hidden flavors of the dish that you are tasting.<\/p>\n

The result is a truly amazing taste experience.<\/p>\n

Experimenting with new flavors, however, is not limited to match beer and spicy food. Someone went far beyond that.<\/p>\n

Some\u00a0brewers\u00a0<\/strong>have come to even produce varieties of beer with chilli: the\u00a0Chili Beer Arizona<\/em>\u00a0or the\u00a0Italian Verdi Imperial Stout<\/em>, for example, perfect in pairing with a good chocolate.<\/p>\n

The recipe of the\u00a0chilli beers<\/strong>\u00a0is a secret and the lovers of\u00a0craft beer<\/strong>, driven by the desire to explore new flavors, can not help but experience…Until reaching the perfect combination of taste.<\/p>\n

Do you have the wish to experience (and taste) original pairings between beer and tasty food? You’ll be glad to know that, throughout Italy, many\u00a0microbreweries\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0brewpubs\u00a0<\/em>organize events and tastings.<\/p>\n

For example, if you live in Milan or in the surrounding areas, we can advise the\u00a0Lambrate Brewery<\/strong>,\u00a0landmark for lovers of excellent\u00a0craft beer<\/strong>: they are also very good in organizing numerous events based on music, culture and….Great food.<\/p>\n

Visit\u00a0the website of Lambrate Brewery<\/a>\u00a0and do not miss the next culinary events.<\/p>\n
