Chicago Sun-Times freelance writer Allecia Vermillion penned a nice article about pairing beer and cheese. The article talks about why beer and cheese pair so well:

Because beer shares a certain commonality of origin with cheese, it’s difficult to make a truly terrible beer and cheese match. Ales and lagers partner willingly with most cheeses while wine’s inherent acidity makes a good cheese pairing more of a challenge.

    I really like pairing beer and food. For a particularly bad pairing, try a Belgian dubbel with buttered popcorn. It’s horrible. Pale ale, IPA, os Saison would be a better choice.
