Beer vs. Wine--The Smackdown

Wine lovers know that wine is about more than...well, wine. The appreciation of anything in a profound way is a lifestyle choice. A connoisseur should be aware of what surrounds his or her passion. Love Shakespeare? You probably want to read some Jonson. Adore beef? You probably want to try buffalo steaks. The same goes for beverage pairings.

The crackerjack staff at Food + Wine magazine on their website today published an article about beer versus wine pairings for several dishes. And they include the recipes, which is always fun. This just goes to show that with an open mind is the best way to live a lifestyle of aesthetic appreciation. And, frankly, sometimes beer is the better choice.
