Title: Pairing with acids
Post by: danb6177 on 07/16/2017 09:20 AM
A friend of mine wants to try her first cigar and asked me to smoke with her. I figured Id do a mild Connecticut but then chose an acid instead. I've never tried an acid so figured Id give one a whirl as well. So what do I drink with this thing?

What ACID is it?
I find a Port Wine or Iced Tea works well.

Hmm port wine is one of my favorites. That may work well. It's a blonde bellicose

Wound up not being able to make it to the store so sierra nevada pale ale was what I did. Did not like the cigar really so not sure any pairing would have worked for me.
