Take a tour of New England and the Northeast through your tastebuds with this cheese and beer pairing class. During the class, we will learn about how different styles of cheese are made while sampling six hand-selected local cheeses and accompaniments. We'll get a taste of everything from fresh to bloomy to funky to sharp to blue and learn about what makes great pairings and which beers bring out the subtle notes of a cheese. All the cheeses and pairings come from small Northeastern Artisans. Bring your appetite because while it's *just cheese*, you'll walk away with a full belly and a head full of cheesy knowledge.
