1. Sausages
Have a platter of juicy grilled sausages like the Germans or go American and have an old school hotdog. You'll be safe with bratwurst or smoked Italian sausages - they're known to be the most beer friendly of the lot.

2. French fries/ potato wedges
We think that the chunky character of potato wedges make a better match with your chugs of beer but if a basket of elegant french fries are more your calling, no one's stopping you there! To add a little oomph to the boring mountain of sliced potato, try having them beer battered instead, like these beer creations.

3. Wings (hot/chicken)
Chicken wings have a universal standing and are known to be great pairings with beer. Slather the tender and juicy meat with a hot and spicy sauce and they'll be a perfect match with malty beers that help to tone the heat down.

4. Sliders
For the ones who love burgers, sliders would be a star choice. Bite-sized with a generously-thick slab of meat, these miniature burgers ensure that you get full flavours with every bite. Keep calm and savour on, then wash it down with a cold pint of beer.

5. Kebabs
Load up your grills with skewers of your favourite meats and if you wish, break that monotony with some chopped up peppers. Kebabs are great for a variable crunch to go with more flavourful beers. For a more local twist on things, try satays!

6. Chips & Dips
Like we said, ditch the usual potato chips and go for some nachos, preferably with a savoury cheese dip. Not a nacho-cheese person? Perhaps some tortilla chips and salsa dip will steer to your liking. Crunch, guzzle, crunch, and guzzle - sounds like a perfect symphony for a beer night, no?

7. Pizza
You'll never go wrong with a classic slice of pizza. With beer, they're said to be a match made in heaven. The starch and grease in each slice leaves you thirsty and hankering after that ice cold beer. Speaking of which, do you recall ‘Pizza Beer' under our list of weird beer flavours?
