Beer stews are a classic Irish dish. The mellow hops and barley from the lager will add a nice subtle touch to your vegetable stew, providing it with a bit more sweetness and body. The recipe asks for either button or shiitake mushrooms. I strongly suggest the shiitake. They have a firmer body and a stronger flavor, which means a richer broth and more texture in your stew.
