A Must-Try Cheese: Beecher's Flagship

"A Must-Try Cheese" is a new series that I will be introducing to the blog. It's my way of sharing with you my favorite cheeses. This week's cheese is Beecher's Flagship from Seattle, Washington. Let me tell you, it's incredible. If swiss gruyere and cheddar had a baby, it would be named Flagship. It's nutty with a sharp, cheddary finish. True Story-I actually had one of my customers thank me for introducing him to this cheese! It's that good. I simply enjoy it with a baguette and a Matilda.  The malty, butterscotch notes of the beer bring out the natural sweetness of the cheese. Not too light nor too strong, making it a perfect pairing with Beecher's Flagship.
