Food & wine pairing

• Compare malt, roast, bitterness, fruit and intensity.
• A malty amber beer can accompany roasted flavours; a beer with roasted notes can echo cocoa.

• Do not automatically suggest a very bitter, strong beer with chilli.
• The alternative should meet the guest's need, not merely change category.

Training

• for the same fish, propose a pairing with lemony steaming, then another with a creamy sauce.
• Explain what changes in two sentences.
