Raising the Bar: Great Foreign Food/Foreign Beer Pairings

Written by David Morgan

A quality beer to go with a tasty meal can make for a good night. Hell, it can turn a week around.  Obviously taste is an extremely subjective matter and there are millions of possibilities when it comes to pairings, but – taking that into account – there are a couple of foreign food/foreign beer pairings we wanted to recommend for the next time you’re out on the town or out of the country.

Pad thai paired with German Weiβbier/Hefeweizen

With all of the different flavors mixed together in a good dish of pad thai (from peanuts to lime to egg to meat, etc), you want to be able to taste them.  So, why not go for a beer that won’t overwhelm your palette?  Weiβbier (or white beer/wheat beer) has a light, sweetish flavor that will complement a flavorful noodle dish like pad thai rather than drown it out.

 

Carne Asada with Stout/Porter

A little Mexican barbecue with a little UK beer.  Guinness and other stout beers are great when you’re trying to find a beer to contend with the potent flavors that characterize grilled meat dishes from south of the border.

 

Curry Dishes with Belgian Golden/Blonde Ale

Belgium, for its small-size, is a real titan when it comes to beer production with over five hundred varieties of beer, a lot of it's good beer at that.  Blonde ales aren’t too malty or hoppy, so they work well when a spicy curry dish has left you dry and gagging for a refreshing drink.

 

Tiramisu with milk stout

Milk stouts are beers with extra unfermented sugars as well as some added lactose.  This sweetness makes them excellent compliments to desserts, especially those containing chocolate or creamy desserts like Italian tiramisu.  Traditionally, tiramisu includes lady fingers, espresso, cream, cheese, sugar, cocoa, and some form of liquor (often rum), and the sweet creamy beer helps it all go down.
