Get Ready For Christmas with The Cheeseman. Entertain guests and friends with our handy beer guide.

Beer and cheese have a natural affinity, they share similar flavours: nutty, tangy, floral, and earthy. They can both offer a sharp, dry texture or a smooth and creamy one.

 A few basic guidelines can help guide your choices; here are a few suggestions to get you started:

• Delicate beers with young, fresh cheeses
• Malty beers with nutty, aged cheeses
• Highly hopped, bitter beers with tart, sharp cheeses, especially farmhouse cheddars
• Strong, sweet beers with blue cheeses
