Which beers do you find to be a good match for a meal of Chinese food? I have found this one usually goes pretty well.

|  | KEED SPILLS..no, wait..PILL SKEEDS..SKILL PEEDS? | | Join Date: May 2011 Location: Nashville, Cats | | Sapporo...it is a world class lager by any standards and is the oldest brand of beer in Japan (or, at least, i believe this to be the case...correct me if i am wrong)
i love it with any oriental food...sushi, chinese, thai...it goes with them all.
i have tried a few brands of chinese beer, and none of them come up to Sapporo.

That seems to be the appropriate choice for the food pairing. |

That aside, I almost always try to pair food with one of it's native drinks. I believe food and drink naturally evolve together in a region and almost always pair up perfectly that way.

I wouldn't order a German beer with tacos, I'd get a Cervesa. Gotta have red wine with pasta, too.
Btw, though I'm not much of a hop head, IPAs are good with jalapeno burgers! |
