Great beers to go with cigars

So I thought I would list some of my favorite beers that go well with cigars

first and foremost are the stouts and porters they always compliment a cigar very nicely

Bells Expedition Stout
Bells Kalamazoo stout
Victory Storm King Imperial Stout
Stone Russian Imperial Stout
Great Lakes Blackout stout
Great Lakes Edmund Fitzgerald Porter

I think IPAs go very well with cigars, to me the bitterness in the IPA compliments the spice in the cigar.

Bells Hopslam
Bells Two Hearted Ale
Stone Ruination IPA
Stone IPA

Also some fantastic Belgians:

Rochefort 10 Quadrupel
Delirium Tremens

what what kind of brews do you like to have with your cigar?

Re: Great beers to go with cigars

I like Victory Prima Pils, a clean crisp Pilsner
I also like HopDevil with some smokes and who doesn't like a guiness with a nice chocolatey maduro wrapper.

Re: Great beers to go with cigars

I like some micro brews but I am a big cheap beer drinker. I drink high life light with many of my cigars. A corona here and there

Re: Great beers to go with cigars

Another one for Miller Lite as the go to, but for the special brews I like Anchor Steam, Fat Tire, Red Hook ESB and good old Sam Adams.

Re: Great beers to go with cigars

Some great beers already listed here like Stone IPA and the Dogfishhead 60 and 90 min., I also love Rogue brewery stuff, but my goto beer is Sierra Nevada Pale Ale.
I do switch it up to stouts and porters during the winter though. Rogue Chocolate Stout is amazing.

Re: Great beers to go with cigars

guinness draught, it has less carbonation than most other beers. I think its alot smoother, it goes well with all cigars

Bells Hopslam
Bells Two Hearted Ale
Those are two great beers! The Hopslam is a monster for sure! I've only had one or two since we can not get it here in TN, but it was a memorable one! Can you get them outside of Michigan and Wisco?

As for my other favs......

Fat Tire by New Belgium
Magic Hat #9
And of course Miller Lite! :-)

Sam, I had my fill of the heavy, dark beers when I was in the Army stationed in Germany.

At the time I was a Dunkel Weizen whore. We had a monastery a little ways down the road that brewed some and it would make you feel like you had been drinking tequila.
