question: What is a good beer pairing for Herbal roast beef with a cranberry jus?
answer: A great choice for Herbal roast beef with a cranberry jus is Tokyo* (Intergalactic Stout. Rich. Smoky. Fruity.). Here's the recipe:
  This Intergalactic Stout. Rich. Smoky. Fruity. features a complex malt bill including Extra Pale (11.25 kilograms), Dark Crystal (1.75 kilograms), and Chocolate (0.5 kilograms). The hopping schedule uses Chinook (37.5grams @ start), and Galena (37.5grams @ start) for balanced bitterness and aroma. If in doubt, just split the malt bill in two and do a double mash. Mash and collect, clean out and mash and collect again. Don’t even bother sparging – you don’t want any more water in there. Keep the fermentation a little warmer than usual 21 - 23°C, and don’t panic if it takes a month to ferment...
