Alcoholic or Non-alcoholic Beer

Pairing cigars with a refreshing beer makes particular sense in summer when the weather is hot. Pairing beer with tobacco is subject to the same rules as wine: mild cigars go well with a light beer. The same applies to non-alcoholic versus alcoholic beer: a light beer like pilsner or light ale blends well with light to medium-bodied cigars with a gentle aroma profile. If you enjoy a dark beer with a higher malt content, you can pair it with a slightly stronger smoke having a spicy aroma.
