Whether you’re at home in your pajamas or out late night with friends, pizza and beer make an ultimate comfort food pairing. Alone, they are classic, but together they can turn anyone’s night around. Here are four pizza and beer pairings that complement each other, elevating your night to something special. 

4 of the Best Pizza & Beer Pairings to Try

1. Cheese & Pale Ales 

A perfect slice of melty, greasy cheese pizza matches well with most American pale ales, The pungent hoppiness and touch of bitterness cuts the grease—without overwhelming the flavor of the pizza. You could also try a Berliner Weisse, with a strong lemony tartness. 

2. Pepperoni & Brown Ales

What could be more classic than a piece of pepperoni? Spicy pepperoni goes well with the malty, light sweetness of American brown ales. A wheat beer with a spicy, citrus kick will also help round out your classic slice. 

3. Mushroom & English Ales

Need something for the vegetarian at the party? Earthy, rich mushrooms need bright sweetness and hops to counteract the heavy savoriness. English ales have just enough hops to light up the meaty taste of the mushrooms. 

4. Everything & Maibocks

When you can’t make up your mind about toppings, just order them all. Maibocks are clean-tasting and smooth with low hops content. That makes them a great beer for pairing with a slice of everything. A lager is also a good choice that pairs well with the meat but won’t overwhelm the different flavors from the veggies.
