Welcome to our new series highlighting the bountiful world of beer&cheese pairings. Join us each week as we explore a new turophilic delight paired with our seasonal and year-round brews. The weekend may be over, but this pairing is still perfect!
Rumble Wood Aged IPA and Costwold
Rumble Wood Aged IPA is a balanced, nuanced IPA with character. Aged on French and American oak chips, this hoppy brew is something unexpected. With caramel sweetness and undertones of pine, it’s a beer-drinker’s delight.
Cotswold is a cow’s milk cheese from picturesque Cotswold, Great Britain. A classic blend of chives and onion, coupled with quality Double Glouchester cheese, this cheddary, smooth delight is a modern rendition of an old British favorite. A powerfully flavored cheese, Cotswald is well known in Britain as “pub cheese.” Cotswold is the perfect cheese to welcome Fall.
Pep up your Monday with this perfect pairing.

One of the first Forkly blogging tools we’re rolling out is the ability to embed tastes.
Embedded taste cards allow you to easily share your photos, ratings and taste notes. Your readers can then “Want” items directly from your blog and find them later when they’re hungry. It’s a great way…

The fresh, whole cone hops have arrived at the brewery and our rockstar brewers have been hard at work around the clock to turn them into delicious beer. Centennial, Cascade and Simcoe hops are shipped overnight, directly from the field to the brewery, maximizing freshness.
The whole cone hops impart a grassy, citrusy, aromatic character to the beer. While this beer may be a labor of love for our brewers, it’s a tasty, crisp pale ale that’s perfect for the season. If you’re nice, you may even get a whole cone hop in your Tap Room pour.
Keep an eye out for Fresh Hop Pale Ale on shelves at the end of the month. Cheers to fresh hop beers!

Welcome to our new series highlighting the bountiful world of beer&cheese pairings. Join us each week as we explore a new turophilic delight paired with our seasonal and year-round brews.
Hoss Rye Lager and Avalanche Cabra Blanca
Hoss Rye Lager is crisp, earthy and unexpected. The addition of rye gives it a surprising emanating pleasantness. It’s red-orange pour is an aesthetic delight and its versatility makes it the perfect pairing beer for all seasons.
Cabra Blanca is a natural goat cheese from Paonia, Colorado. It’s made in basalt, hand-wrapped and aged for six to twelve months, producing a semi-soft slightly drier cheese with citrusy notes and a hint of hay and straw. You can find more information about Avalanche Cheese Company here. This local beauty pairs harmoniously with the milkd cherry flavors and pleasant spice found in Hoss.
You can use this long weekend to celebrate beer and food with this local treat.

Hades Belgian Strong Ale and Manchego
This week’s pairing features our golden beauty Hades with an approachable, easy-to-find sheep’s milk cheese. Let’s take a look:
Hades Belgian Strong Ale is a complex brew with just a pinch of mystery. You may remember it from its Day In The Life post. It pours brilliant gold with a balanced, crisp taste. Its spicy flavor and aroma makes it a perfect mate for pairing.You can find this beer in 6-pks across the nation.
Manchego is a sheep’s milk cheese hailing from the La Mancha region of Spain. It can be aged anywhere from 2 months to 2 years, giving it a firm consistency. With its buttery texture and nutty flavor, this toothsome cheese was made for pairing. Manchego is approachable for every palate, as it remains a classic go-to for cheese connoisseurs, a mellow intro for newbies and an easy-to-find indulgence at your local market.
During August’s hot days and warm nights, this pairing will befit any al fresco eve.
