Editor\u2019s note: Cheese and beer are great together. Contributor David Phillips has been putting cheese and beer together\u2014and writing about the results\u2014for more than 10 years. In this installment, he looks at pairing Saison (aka farmhouse ale) with Alpine cheeses.<\/em><\/p>\n

There are a handful of no-brainers when it comes to pairing cheese and beer. Among them are Saison beers of Belgium (often referred to as farmhouse ales when made elsewhere) paired with Gruy\u00e8re, Comt\u00e9 or an American-made Alpine style cheese like Pleasant Ridge Reserve. The beer is usually light in body, with a bright, lively carbonation, and complex but subtle flavors. A good Alpine has a silky texture and an array of flavors that go from nutty to meaty and savory.\u00a0 I\u2019ve put them together over and over again, in various combinations and they pretty much never disappoint.\u00a0<\/p>\n
