Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups Beer pairing: Porter Sometimes you just need to have chocolate on chocolate, and this decadent pairing of peanut butter and chocolate with the dark, roasty, chocolate notes of this beer satisfies that craving.
M&M’s Beer pairing: Cream Ale or a Pilsner to cut through the sweetness on this one M&Ms have that sweet combination of sugary shell and chocolate, which calls for a crisp, clean Pilsner to cut through the sugar and refresh your palate.
Snickers Beer pairing: Strong Belgian Dark Ale Strong Belgian dark ales have a complexity and depth that pairs well with and stands up to a candy bar like Snickers that has a lot going on.

Kit Kat Beer pairing: Brown Ale Kit Kat’s chocolately wafers cry out for a foil of nuttiness and malt to balance and contrast the fun flavors.
Twix Beer pairing: Hefeweizen Cookies are the heart of the Twix bar, so a wheat beer (light or dark) should play well with the crunchy caramel goodness!
