Questions about Regular beer
How cold should you serve regular beer?
Serve it cool rather than ice-cold: extreme cold can mute the beer’s aroma and flavour. Pour gently down the side of a clean glass, then straighten the glass near the end to build a modest head.
Can you use regular beer in batter?
Yes. Use it cold in place of some of the liquid in batter for fish, onions or vegetables; its bubbles help make the coating light. Stir only until combined, then fry promptly so the batter stays airy.
What dishes can you cook with regular beer?
Add it to a beef stew, onion gravy or a pot of mussels for a malty, savoury note. For a stew, brown the meat and vegetables first, add beer to loosen the browned bits, then simmer until the meat is tender.
What food goes well with regular beer?
Its malty, bitter notes pair well with salty foods such as pretzels, mature cheese and chips, as well as grilled sausages and fried fish. A squeeze of lemon over fried fish brings a fresh contrast.
How should you store an opened bottle or can of beer?
Seal it if possible and refrigerate it; drink it soon, as contact with air quickly dulls its fizz and flavour. Keep unopened beer cool and out of direct sunlight, which can give it an unpleasant skunky smell.
Can you replace regular beer in a recipe?
For batter, use sparkling water or a non-alcoholic beer to keep some of the bubbles. In stews and gravy, use stock with a little vinegar or lemon juice for acidity, though you will lose beer’s malty flavour.
How does regular beer compare with non-alcoholic beer?
Per 100 g, regular beer has 43 kcal and 3.6 g carbohydrate, while non-alcoholic beer has 36 kcal and 8.1 g carbohydrate. Their flavour and alcohol content also differ, so they are not always interchangeable in a recipe.
How is regular beer made?
Brewers ferment sugars from malted grain with yeast, then add hops for bitterness and aroma. The yeast produces alcohol and carbon dioxide; the latter gives beer its natural fizz.
