best beer for BBQ

[john-z]

I thought all tequilas were made from the blue agave. If made from the other agave plants it has to be labeled mescal.

As for beer for smokin', pretty much anything that is ice cold, but i sure do prefer the real beers made from malts, not the american excuse for beer. All time fav for drinking with a meal, is Guiness Stout. But i only like 2 of them max, then i want something a bit lighter.

Up here in the land of many microbrews, choosing your beer is like choosing a wine with dinner.  There's just no one right answer!

I second that!  Here in Boise, there just as many microbrew choices.  Most of the time, however, I go with a dark imperial stout of some kind (my favorite mass-produced brew is Sam Adams' Imperial Stout, served at about 45° in a snifter glass), and just last weekend I enjoyed 22 oz of 2009 The Abyss from Deschutes Brewing....paired perfectly!

Samuel Smith's Taddy Porter would be my personal preference. This is the best damn dark beer I've ever had. Incredibly smooth, flavorful and drapes the tongue like water. If you haven't tried it it's well worth it.

I'm a Miller Lite guy too.  Not a fan of heavy/bitter beers.  I enjoy a nice Rolling Rock now and then, but mostly, I'm a cheap beer kinda guy.

If you can find it, I highly recommend Young's Double chocolate stout. It make a really great "desert" beer and is also great in various mop sauce and glaze recipes.

Cheers,

Its also really good to use in an "adult" ice cream float

Make a snake bite out of it. Just like a black and tan but with Guiness and Woodchuck.

I love trying all different micro brews so I vary alot as far as what I drink when cooking.  Ive been drinking alot of beer from Dogfish Head Brewery which I have tried about 6 or 7 varieties and all have been awesome.  This time of yr Sam Adams makes Noble Pils which is one of my favs.  

 

[buckley]

The best beer? Well that's free beer. If I have to pay for it then I get Hebrew beer or any of the darker Sam Adams.

I use, and like to drink Leininkugel when smoking or grilling.  Tonight I'll be using some Guinness Extra Stout for some beer can chickens.
