I love to use Newcastle Brown when I make steak pies. Gorgeous flavour.

Hi foxym, in a winter beef casserole I use Guinness or other stout. Mmmmmmmm. Have also used Black Sheep Ale, Newcastle Brown, Speckled Hen and many others - just depends what I have in at the time. Experiment and I'm sure you'll find one that suits your taste.

Hi HB - I haven't been able to get onto H's site since the Boards changed, and decided that I could not risk dropping my security on the computer as it is all working okay at the moment. Are you alright? Still missing me???

Cooking with ale /beer is similar to cooking with wine.Some recipes need a heavy beer; some a lighter one.Most supermarkets have a wide range of modern British beers/ales.
Delia Smith says choose the one with the prettiest label!

Mick - A good winter ale in a Casserole or Stew is a Porter, as it is sweet or maybe a Dark Mild

Sometimes seeing these problems as a dad is even worse. Can you talk to your dad about these sort of things?
