Hi Steveking, and welcome to the Wine Board. Buy her wine by the glass, and enjoy your beer. If she doesn't like the smell, order another drink you like. It's that simple.

We have a beer here in the shop that might suit ya. It's called Duchesse de Bourgogne by Brouwerij Verhaeghe, a leading Belgian brewery. It's called "The Burgundy of Beers" and is actually a Flemish sour ale that tastes like what you'd get if you poured a little Pinot into a really nice, full-bodied ale. Our customers have often remarked on the wine-like character of it and everybody who's tried it has liked it, to some degree. Several of my "wine only" people have really taken to it. It's probably gonna be hard to find but it might do the job for you.

Steve he wants a wine that tastes like beer, not a beer that tastes like wine.
