"But whether you're hosting or simply attending, there's one thing no Super Bowl party is complete without: beer, and plenty of it. Deciding on the perfect beer for such an occasion can be difficult; you want something that'll appeal to a wide variety of palates and pair well with whatever you'll be feasting on. It's gotta be light enough that you can keep tossing them back well into the fourth quarter and still go to work the next day sans hangover, but not too light."
"I would bring Summit Brewing Company Extra Pale Ale. While most people would go with a lager to aid in widespread appeal, and Summit certainly has plenty of good ones, I want to bring an old classic that also has enough body, malt and hop character to hold up to all the food I know I am going to be eating during the big game. Wings? The malt in this beer will help handle any spice. Cheese dip? The hops will help cut through the richness."
Super Bowl gatherings require abundant beer choices that appeal broadly and pair well with heavy, spicy, and rich foods. Ideal beers combine drinkability with enough body, malt, and hop character to stand up to wings, cheese dip, and similar fare while keeping ABV moderate for extended drinking. Recommended selections include both crowd-pleasers and bolder options. Three of eleven selected beers were Sierra Nevada variants, each different. One highlighted choice is Summit Brewing Company Extra Pale Ale (English Pale Ale, 5.1% ABV) praised for malt balance and hops that cut through richness while remaining sessionable.
