BEER AND STREAM: 8 TIPS FOR LONG EVENINGS

Tips

Beerpairing 2.0: We offer you the perfect pairings between beer and series or streaming movie for colder days.

The days are getting shorter, the layers of clothing are becoming more numerous and your sofa is now crying out for all the attention you denied it during the summer. In short, the hour of watching series has arrived. And because "pairing" ideas work so well in the fabulous world of Pinterest and the like, we've come up with a whole new genre for you: Beer & Stream, which is the perfect pairing of film and a hopped tea. We deliberately rely on a mix of news from popular streaming portals and more or less well-known classics. After all, we also have a university mission to uphold. You've probably seen "Squid Game" before, so we deliberately didn't put it on the list. So without further ado

1. "BROOKLYN NINE-NINE" AND BROOKLYN LAGER

Okay, that was pretty obvious. If you love American comedy series, you probably already know Jake Peralta and his team from the 99th Police Precinct. But have you ever realized that Jake is the embodiment of the Brooklyn camp: down to earth, yet with a lot of class in his bag? We'll use your amazement to give you another "life hack". If you change the language of your Netflix account to English (you can't do that in the app, only on your computer), you'll suddenly find a lot of content you missed before. Like, for example, the seventh season of Brooklyn Nine-Nine, which we wouldn't have been able to watch before 2022. You're welcome...

2. "RICK AND MORTY" AND VALAISANNE WHITE IPA

Since October 22, you can also watch the 5th season of Rick & Morty on Netflix using the trick described above. Finding a beer that can stand up to the spirited adventures of arguably the craziest grandfather-grandson duo of all time is not so easy. But we're sure Valaisanne White IPA can definitely hold its own when it comes to eccentricity. At the very least, we're relatively sure you haven't had anything quite like it, as it combines two extremely different beer styles with wheat beer and IPA. Almost like the heroes of our series, you might say. In other words, your first encounter with this Valais brew will pleasantly remind you of the feeling you felt after watching the first episode of "Rick and Morty".

3. "MURDER ON THE ORIENTEXPRESS" AND GRIMBERGEN ROUGE

Yes, you have to appreciate Agatha Christie's classic novel in the 1974 theatrical version, but since early October Disney+ has been airing the remake starring Kenneth Branagh as Hercule Poirot. The film is worth seeing, if only for the quality of the cast, including Johnny Depp, ever so brilliant. So why do we recommend Grimbergen Rouge? Because Hercule Poirot is Belgian (and not French, hold on!), and because he is the complete opposite of Jake Peralta: extraordinary and not at all "down to earth", like a Grimbergen Rouge.

4. "LOKI" AND DEFENDER-IPA

On Disney+ you'll find a whole series derived from the Avengers movies. We chose Loki for several reasons. First, it's about temporal anomalies and alternate realities that can warm up any cold winter night with philosophical nerd talk. Then, Tom Hiddleston embodies the Norse god of playfulness, quite simply... yes, divine, and Owen Wilson is right up there with him as the aloof "guardian of time." Third, Kate Herron finally directs a woman in a Marvel work, which is very positive. This inevitably involves a Defender IPA, the beer of superheroes and New York Comicon.

5. "THE PRESTIGE" AND SCHNEIDER WEISSE AVENTINUS

You probably know the duo of Christopher Nolan behind the camera and Christian Bale in front because they gave us the three (arguably) best Batman movies. In "The Prestige," they're joined by Hugh Jackman and Scarlett Johansson. And yes, music legend David Bowie is also on board. The plot: In 19th century London, two young magicians compete for the best tricks and the favor of the audience. A masterpiece of suspense and magic that calls for a beer as complex as it is sophisticated. So if you've always been looking for the right occasion to drink an Aventinus, the dark wheat doppelbock from the house of Schneider, you've come to the right place!

6. "THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW" AND BROOKLYN BEL AIR SOUR

We're almost willing to bet you've ever sung and danced like there's no tomorrow to "Time Warp" at a party. Do you know what movie that song is from? That's right, from 'Rocky Horror Picture Show', that absolutely bonkers 1970s musical adaptation that is, without exaggeration, a must-see on every cinephile's bucket list. When it comes to beer, there's really only one choice: Brooklyn Bel Air Sour. Funky and flamboyant, just like the action on the big screen. Or your TV.

7. "THE LAST LUDE" AND ASTRA URTYP

Yes, the film is anything but French-language and new. It also proves that you won't win any prizes at international film festivals with such slapstick. That's why we recommend this trash find for your contribution to a "bad movie night" with your friends. When the main character Stullen-Andi makes fun of the neighborhood on St. Pauli in a thoroughly politically incorrect way, the lowest humor drawer is opened. That is, one that remains firmly closed under normal circumstances. With a combination lock whose combination... no, to understand that, you have to have seen the film. Since everything takes place in Hamburg's red light milieu, we're sure: "Der letzte Lude" can be seen with an Astra Urtyp, genuine St. Pauli original.

8. "YOU" AND SELECT 1927 BENGAL AMBER IPA

Fans of the series have been eagerly waiting for the third season, which is finally available on Netflix. If you are not yet part of this community, it's time to change that. That's why we don't want to give too much away, but we can say the same thing: the action centers on Joe, a bookseller who doesn't have a healthy understanding of relationships. The story is extremely exciting and multi-faceted, with completely surprising twists waiting for you in every episode. Of course, this requires a beer that is just as full of character and depth. We recommend the Selecção 1927 Bengal Amber IPA, which you should definitely try, even outside the series.
