| i never drink beer. having some friends over tonight to make pizza with the kids. have wine but thought i should pick up some beer in case anyone wants that. what kind of beer do i get to go with pizza? i was overwhelmed by the options are the store earlier today and walked away! |
| If it were me, I'd go with something like Sam Adams. I'd go for a medium color. There are some good Octoberfest beers. |

Yuengling
Blue Moon Magic Hat (fall brew) Red Stripe DC Brau Like PP said, look for Octoberfest or "fall" beers Yes I like beer. |
| Pizza and beer! I recommend Blue Moon. You slice up oranges to put in it like lime with Corona. It is a great, smooth beer that almost everyone likes. |

Peroni
Stella Artois Pilsner Irquell I know several beer drinkers who don't like Blue Moon. |
| Dogfish 90. |
| I like root beer with pizza myself. |
This is a) expensive and b) a beer for hopheads, not what you get for the average person coming over. If you get Dogfish I'd get the shelter pale ale, or maybe the 60 min. |
| Sierra Nevada has a nice fall beer too-- Tumbler I think. |
|
Don't get Blue Moon. It's fussy girl beer.
You want a nice middle of the road Pale Ale or Lager. Yuengling is a good choice. |
|
Oh dear. It's a shame that you all need to drink beer with pizza. You must be an alcoholic. Your poor children.
/sarcasm /Did that trick-or-treating thread die yet? |
| Yuengling very yeasty, don't waste your money. |
|
Dogfish 90
+1 it's a beer, the way beer should taste, beer drinker will love it |
| I have to agree with PP that it is horribly irresponsible to consider having a beer with your pizza after you have children. I hope they have been quaranteed in a secure location while you "score" your "hit" of "fix", or whatever you alcies call it nowadays. |
| Sam Adams is a good normal beer, not crappy and not fancy. Most people would be happy with Sam Adams and pizza I think. I love Dogfishhead, but don't think everyone does. I know lots of people who "like" beer, but usually only drink "domestic" (boring) beer, but that kind of person would be fine with Sam Adams. |
