BEER and CHEESE!

Now that we have your attention…

…We’re delighted to say that we’ve partnered with the incredibly talented, local cheesemaker’s at Torpenhow Cheese Company! Together we’ve compiled a list of ideal cheese and beer pairings for you to explore, enjoy and indulge in!

Torpenhow Cheese Company is based on the Northern edge of the Lake District National Park, only 23 miles from our Brewhouse. They’ve been creating award winning cheeses and butters for the past few years and the great news is that they complement our ales perfectly!

Here are a few combinations that you simply must try:

Their Cheese: Oak Smoked Cheddar

Park House Cheddar tasting notes: Sharp and creamy, with a well-rounded flavour and full mouthfeel.

Their Cheese: Binsey Red
