Trying to plan an IPA and Chili Pairing Night

premium

Hi folks,

I’m planning an IPA and chili night for myself and a few buddies and I’m hoping some of you could give me a bit of advice;

The chili peppers I’ve got hold of are: Guajillo, Chipotle, Mulato, Cascabel, Pasilla, and Morita, and I’m going to make salsas out of each of them and serve them up with some nacho chips.

If anyone has any comments about which hops might go well with the different strengths of chili it would be really appreciated; at the moment I’m thinking of pairing some English hop IPAs with the more earthy and mild chilis (i.e. Mulato), but I’d love some advice about the spicier ones if you can give it to me!

Cheers and all the best,

Alex
