Questions about Alcohol beer

How should you store beer, and how long does it keep after opening?

Keep bottles and cans upright in a cool, dark place; chill them before serving if you like. Once opened, beer quickly loses its fizz and aroma, so drink it the same day rather than saving it.

Can you cook with beer, and does the alcohol all cook off?

Beer adds bitterness and malty flavour to stews, braised meat and batter. Alcohol does not necessarily disappear during cooking, so don’t assume a dish is alcohol-free just because it has simmered.

What food goes well with beer?

Lagers pair well with salty snacks, grilled fish and fried food; darker, maltier beers suit roast meat and rich stews. Beer is also used in Welsh rarebit and beer-battered fish.

Can you freeze beer?

Avoid putting beer in the freezer: it can expand, split a bottle or burst a can, and freezing can damage its flavour and fizz. If you need to chill it quickly, use an ice bucket instead.

What can you use instead of beer in a recipe?

For batter or a stew, use sparkling water or stock for the liquid, with a little vinegar or lemon juice to replace some of beer’s sharpness. The flavour will differ, especially in recipes where maltiness is prominent.

What is the difference between beer and strong beer?

Strong beer has more alcohol by volume, but the name alone does not give an exact strength: check the alcohol percentage on the container. Its flavour can also be fuller, though that depends on the style.

Is beer safe to drink if you need to drive?

The safest choice before driving is not to drink alcohol: the effect can vary with the amount and timing, and you may be impaired even if you feel fine. Arrange a lift or choose a non-alcoholic drink.
