My fiancee loves sour beers. I'm more of a stout/porter dude, but I'm looking for some suggestions for what foods pair well with sour beers.
"Sour Beer," isn't really a style of beer, but there are styles that happen to be sour. So, what types of beers does your fiancee enjoy: Flemish Reds, Lambic, Berliner Weiss? Flemish Reds: I've had great luck with not only red meat, but some interesting Chinese foods that exhibit an interplay between sweet and sour flavors. Braised meats work well here, as well and Triple Cream cheeses. Berliner Weiss: Lighter salad stuff, lighter seafood (Ceviche comes to mind), Frito Misto ( lightly battered and fried mixed seafood) works really well with bubbly, light, tart beers. Lambic: Gueze works classically with seafood, but I love pairing these with runny funky raw-milk cheeses. Of course there are many other styles of beer that happen to be sour than just these. Just a sampling for your consideration. Hope this helps!
