As for steak and beer lovers, why beer and steak are the best match? Here are the reasons.
Every Steak Deserve a Beer
From sweet stouts to mild ales to sour lambics, there’s a nearly infinite number of brews. There are so many varieties that, no matter what kind of steak you’re cooking, you can find a beer to go with it. Try roasted stout with your grilled steak, pair porter with your porterhouse, or go for red ale if you’re making a pan-cooked steak.
Here are some pairing tastes between steaks and beers for your reference:
Do not need a special reason for a beer
Brewers have gotten pretty creative with their recipes, especially when it comes to seasonal beers. Summer selections are infused with citrus, and winter warmers are laden with spices. And while there are plenty of combinations that should have never have been made, the seasonal selection can transform your steak dinner into a weather-appropriate repast.
As for home brewers, please use temperature controllers to control the beer brewing temperature for successful beer brewing.
Beer bitterness can beat the steak’s fat for better flavor and taste
Sirloins, flat-irons, rib-eyes, and other heavily marbled steaks are known for their fatty, beefy flavors, but if you’ve ever bitten into a thick cut yourself, you know that all of that richness can be overwhelming. That’s why we need to have beer with the steak eating.
Hoppy beers with higher IBUs (short for International Bitterness Unit, which is just a clever way to measure how bitter a beer is) like IPAs, light ales, and sessions, are perfect for cutting through the fattiness of steaks. When your tastebuds are overloaded with the meatiness of your meal, the beer acts like a mouth referee, bringing out steak’s flavor and minimizing its fattiness. Very cool to have them matched, just try them out next time.
Cold and hot, the perfect match
Nothing satisfies the taste buds quite like a juicy steak right off the grill (or the pan) — that is, until you chase that hot piece of meat with a cold sip of beer. It’s a refreshing combo that even a chilled red wine just can’t recreate. They are the perfect match, especially in the summer, or when we BBQ the steak, or grill the steak.
The beer carbonation refreshes each bite
Want to taste everything on your plate? Every last bite of steak? Sipping beer between bites effectively clears your palate. The carbonation of beer and its natural effervescence scrubs your taste buds of any lingering flavors (it’s like Scrubbing Bubbles for your tongue), meaning every time you take a bite, it’ll feel like the first time.
Your satisfaction will be maximized with beer, especially your own homebrewed beer, when you enjoy every and each bite of your cooked steak.
