Miller High Life
Pilsners are easy to drink and combine well with football meals on game day. Surprisingly, a chef would drink a domestic pilsner. My game-day beer is Miller High Life.
BareWolf Brewing's Stranger in the Alps
Craft brewers make great pilsner, and local beers are also popular. Pelsners are refreshing, delicate, and low in alcohol, making them ideal for day drinking.
Bud Light
Bud Light is A&B Bar and Kitchen manager Leah DeBay's favorite American classic. We were advised, "As the NFL's sponsored beer it's an easy beer to drink and won't fill you up before enjoying all our bar snacks."
Lord Hobo 617 Lager
Lager, a cold-fermented relative of pilsner, is also popular during game day. One of the most popular game day lagers in the U.S. is Coors, but Nelson Duran, Beverage Director at Kings Dining & Entertainment, chooses Lord Hobo 617 Lager.
Shipyard's Pumpkinhead Ale
Ales were a key part of the craft beer frenzy of the last decade and a favorite of our beer gurus. Debay like Shipyard's Pumpkinhead Ale, saying, "Enjoy autumn and football with this pumpkin ale.
Tuckerman Brewing Company's Pale Ale
Sweeter, fuller-bodied ales have a higher ABV. Barbara Beckwith of GM Mountain View Grand Resort recommends Tuckerman Pale Ale. She says it's a "deep golden pale ale, crisp and clean just like fall in the North Woods of New Hampshire."
Woodstock Inn Brewery's Pig's Ear Brown Ale
Pig's Ear Brown Ale, produced by Woodstock Inn Brewery, is her second favorite beer, and it is a little bit more decadent. "It's nutty, caramel and chocolate-y no spoon necessary!" Beckwith expressed his enthusiasm.
Devil's Purse Handline Kölsch
A light-colored German brew, Kölsch is top-fermented with ale yeast, noble hops, and light pilsner malt. The hybrid is simple to drink and goes with most meals.
