Beer Food: Great Food to Eat with Beer

There is more than a little truth in the suggestion that beer is humankind’s greatest ever invention. It was a thirsty appetite that motivated people to grow the grains needed to make beer: bread was more an afterthought.

And while wine might be synonymous with fancy restaurant fare, beer is the perfect match for the big, bold flavours of Peri-Peri Chicken, Lamb Shawarma or Goulash. Nothing cuts through the heat of Fish Baked in Chipotle or the salty crispness of Calamari Fritti of the fresh fizz of a cold beer.

Beer Food is the perfect recipe book and beer-matching guide to the flavours you love with a brew. Featuring 80 relaxed, authentic dishes drawing from cuisines internationally, and sprinkled with features on favourite beers from around the world, this is a cookbook that understands that Great Food + Good Beer = Happiness.
