Headed out tomorrow to kill some clams. Planning on a clam fry at camp.
What beverage and cigar goes well with fried clams?

What goes well with clams?

A clam bake/fry has always been a beer event for me. Never really thought about matching cigars, I just smoked what I brought.

I'm with AVB on this one, you can't go wrong with your favorite beer and a good cigar, don't think I'd be focused on 'marrying flavors' in a clam-fry / camping environment.

That sounds interesting, I don't believe I've ever had fried clams before. As for the beverage, that might call for some Coronas or Modellos, on ice of course! As for the cigar, I wouldn't be concerned at all about trying to match it with anything but your beverage.
It seems that there is a recent movement to match cigars with food lately - Wilkey, you know anythng about this? :laugh:
Have a good time today; sounds like it ought to be fun.

Oooooh, fried clams. I love 'em. Especially the whole belly style. :thumbs:
I'd imagine that with an oily, breaded food like that, you'd get a better match with a lighter, crisper beer like Corona, or even one of the citrus tinged summer brews. As for cigars, I'd follow on the same theme, something with a lighter, brighter flavor (Ashton Heritage Puro Sol, CAO Criollo,El Rey del Mundo, etc.) Of course, a nice full-bodied smoke might work to and would at least be worth a try.

For once, knowledge is making me poor!
Oooooohhhh a clam fry........just thinking about it brings a good time to the brain!
A hoppy beer like Hoppus Maximus or Great Lakes Burning River and like others have said......a lighter side cigar to avoid sensory overload!

Thanks for the reminder!
My wife is giving me some grief for packing my mini-humi along. She will get over it sooner or later.
