A Summit Beer Pairing Guide for Memorial Day

Get ready to elevate your Memorial Day cookout with the perfect pairing of Summit beers and delicious grilled favorites. Whether you’re firing up the grill for burgers, brats, or barbecue, Summit Brewing Company has the ideal brew to complement your cookout spread.

For classic burgers hot off the grill, reach for a Summit EPA. This American pale ale’s crisp and clean taste with a hint of citrus pairs perfectly with the savory flavors of a juicy burger. If you’re grilling up some brats or sausages, the malty sweetness and subtle hop bitterness of Summit Oktoberfest will be a fantastic match, enhancing the rich and savory flavors of the sausages.

Grilled seafood pairs wonderfully with our Patio Perfection Gose. The slightly sour and salty notes of the Gose complement the smoky flavors of grilled fish, shrimp, or oysters. The beer’s refreshing and slightly tart profile also balances the richness of grilled seafood, creating a delightful and harmonious combination for a summer meal.

When it comes to barbecue, the smoky, caramelized flavors of grilled meats call for a robust and flavorful beer like our Saga Imperial IPA. Its bold hops and balanced malt profile can stand up to the bold flavors of barbecue sauce and charred meats, making it an excellent choice for your Memorial Day feast.

And let’s not forget about side dishes! If you’re serving up grilled vegetables, the bright and refreshing Twins Pils will be a delightful accompaniment, complementing the natural sweetness of the veggies with its crisp and clean taste.

So, as you gear up for your Memorial Day cookout, be sure to stock up on Summit beers to elevate your grilling experience and impress your guests with perfect beer and food pairings. Cheers to a delicious and memorable Memorial Day celebration!
