We all love a mince and cheese pie, well, a proper kiwi does anyway :o)
I was thinking at lunch, what would be the perfect beer to accompany a good ol mince and cheese pie with tomato sauce?? What do you drink with your pie?
And please dont tell me Tui to go with a Tui pie and some Tuimato sauce on it... Even tho Tuimato sauce is pretty tasty...

Just had an Epic pale ale with a homemade very savoury risotto and it was spot on. Reckon that would work really well with a PROPER pie too!
Cheers,

Pitch Black, with a Pitch Black pie.
We had them for lunch when we brewed PKB (but with the PKB trial rather than Pitch Black). It's made with a pitch black reduction... feel free to lay a slice of cheese on top if that is what you want.
Probably APA for me. I'm not the master of pairing though.
Nothing wrong with servo pies, great for those early Sunday mornings when none of your poncy 'gourmet', organic, ten-dollar-butter-chicken-pies, gluten-free bakeries are open :-P
Its funny when you go overseas, even aussie, and ask for a Mince and Cheese pie, and they say they dont even know what the hell youre talking about?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Then proceed to sell you a "beef and onion" pie which in turn, is actually just a mince and cheese pie :o) hahaha
And americans only put fruit and chocolate in pies, no meat!!! WTF?!?!
