Pork is milder than, for example, beef. So your beverage choices should also be on the lighter side.

Chicken and turkey meat is pale and lean. Light beverages usually work best with them, but the more flavour there is, the more full-bodied your drink can be.

Pale, fresh and mild cheeses are best enjoyed with similarly fresh and mild beverages. For example, a crisp and acidic white wine, a light red wine, or a flavoursome beer.

Mushrooms are very versatile. They go well with a variety of beverages, but generally work best with relatively mild wines and beers. Richly flavoured mushroom dishes can also benefit from more full-bodied beverages.
