Beer with cigars

[Lascaux]

that actually reminds me of a bacon smoked german beer i tried once.
overpoweringly strong taste of bacon. made me want to wretch... but maybe a good hair of the dog, cutting out the need for a fry-up

cant go wrong with a nice dunkelweissen, weihenstephann, paulaner, edelweiss on a very sunny day. yum yum yum

second st austels tribute too, and jennings cumberland is another current fave

Loving your list Joe, but not sure if they're beers .... or sausages!

Magners

Not a big fan of beer TBH. I much prefer spirits, although I do like Magners and a cigar on a summers day. Bliss.

I think 'pace' is one of the nicer aspects of Ales. On warm Summer evenings I prefer to drink them slower than say lagers or cider, which somehow makes them more convivial to cigars.

Good hoppy IPAs tend to work quite well with cigars I find. Some of the best with a cigar, in my opinion, are Sharp's Doom Bar, St Austell's Tribute and St Austell's Proper Job.

A good mild is a nice accompaniment too, with it's slight malty sweetness it can happily take the place of coke mixers. A couple of my favourite milds are Churchend Gravediggers and Summerskills Barley Mow.

New forest organic cider is just cider how it is supposed to be made, much more flavour and kick that the commerical Magners and Bulmers types. I think i might have a bottle of dry or extra dry cider around so i might start with that.

What type of cigars do you have with your cider?

[tippexx]

I don't know what organic New Forest cider is like .... but find very, dry cider to be OK with a cigar.

Now that the weather is getting warmer in the UK (or at least the sun is shining) I find myself moving from the warming spirits of winter to beers and ciders of summer. I wasn't into cigars last summer and just wondered if anyone has any suggestions for a nice niche beer or cider to accompany a fine cigar or two on a warm summer?s day. I'm particularly into organic cider at the moment from the New Forest but I?m thinking the fruity kick might overwhelm the delicate flavours of a mild cigar.
