Sam Adams summer ale and a CAO Gold work well with each other, IMHO.

They make other types of beer?

And then there is Quesada Oktoberfest Cigars that were made especially to smoke with beer....if that does't sell it nothing will.

Yeah, it's not a bad pairing. Ever tried an Epernay with Champagne?
Quotenwb - 7/8/2014 12:51 PM I'm with you, Kevin. Although I don't drink beer very much anymore, when I did, I couldn't find any pairings that really enhanced either the beer or the cigar. :confused:
With you on that. I most of the time would rather have water than a beer with my cigars.

I can't seem to ever find any water, so I reach for a beer. :biggrin: :beer:

There are so many good pairings with cigars....I've actually come down with about 5 different libations with certain cigars as certain types of drinks just bring out the flavor of some of the more complex cigars. Drambuie goes with any cigar I've ever had...the sweetness of it will take down any strong cigar that would otherwise overpower our sense of taste. It enhances the smoke until it is much like it was stored in oak casks.....Amarula on the other hand will take a cigars smoke and make it where the finish lasts longer....adds some sweet cocoa taste which with some cigars makes them so much better. As far as beer goes with cigars....I'll go with a very malty beer like a Dogfish Head....hoppy beers for me tend to over power the smoke from a cigar.

Quotenwb - 7/8/2014 9:51 AMwasn't going to post cuz the subject was summer beers/cigars...but I find maltier beers like certain stouts and porters pair very well with many maduros. I just don't think most folks consider those to be "summer" beers.
