No matter the time of year, beer is always a great choice.
Take a look to see which brews made it onto our top 4 beers for autumn and winter in 2022 and use their flavour profiles and food pairings to finesse your menu this season.
Full strength
Hahn Super Dry
With only a third of the carbs of standard full strength beer, Hahn Super Dry (179824) is brewed using premium ingredients without any artificial additives or preservatives. Lightly hopped and easy to drink, on average this beer is 99.9% sugar free with 0.7% carbs and 99 calories per serve. It is the perfect drink for BBQs in the sun and pairs beautifully with a bit of heat, such as spicy sausages in bread with a tangy salsa dressing.
Light
Great Northern Super Crisp Lager
Great Northern Super Crisp Lager (177357) makes for the ultimate refreshment with its fruity aroma, low bitterness and clean, crisp finish. It is light golden in colour with an overall mild fruity character. Complete with a subtle bitterness and light palate, look to pair this beer with Asian spiced BBQ prawns served with a mint, Thai basil and cabbage slaw.
Craft
James Squire 150 Lashes Pale Ale
A clean-finishing, Australian-style cloudy pale ale for cracking refreshment. Malted wheat adds to its refreshing character and a concoction of hops creates fruity aromas with hints of passionfruit, grapefruit and citrus. This beer pairs well with chilli-basted spanner crab. The sweet meat of the crab and flavours of citrus spice from the fermented chilli are refreshed and cleansed by the James Squire One Fifty Lashes (179834).
Imported
Corona Extra
Corona is famous around the world for its smooth,
refreshing taste. It displays a well-rounded
character with pleasant malt and hop aromas.
Garnish your Corona beer traditionally with a
lime wedge to heighten the citrus aromas and
flavours. Unsurprisingly, Corona Extra (177993) is
best paired with Mexican dishes, as the extra hops
in light lagers help cut down the spices in the food.
