Half Acre Beer-Cheese Pop-Up
The guys over at Half Acre are hosting a pop-up cheese shop in their tasting room from 3pm to 6pm this Saturday. Check out a variety of cheese from Jasper Hill Cellars (including my personal favorite Cabot Creamery) and bread from Elmore Mountain, both Vermont-based artisans. Half Acre founderGabriel Magliaro says,, "Cheese goodies will be available for purchase -- and available for accompaniment with a complimentary flight of sample sized pours, representing 4 of our particularly cheese friendly brews. In short, you buy the cheese, you get the beers." They'll be sampling:
Cabot Clothbound Cheddar - butterscotch, tangy, brothy, nutty
Landaff - bright, grassy, tonicy (best melter for grilled cheeses)
Bayley Hazen Blue - anisey, raisiny, chocolatey
Harbison - spoonable bloomy rind wrapped in bark - sweet cream, woodsy, herbal, mustardy
Plus they will be hosting a second pairing event over at Lush later that evening. Check out Half Acre's blog for more details.
