Visually, this is one of the most striking cheeses in the world. The Claddagh Bo with Porter features a mosaic-like marbling of deep, dark Porter beer veins running through the creamy white cheddar. It tastes like a classic Irish pub lunch—savory, slightly toasted, and deeply creamy with a hint of hops and roasted malt. It is the best "conversation starter" cheese because of its dramatic dark-and-light appearance. It is a hearty, masculine cheese that is essentially a meal in itself when paired with a good crusty loaf of bread. The Recipes Recipe #1: Porter Cheddar & Beef Stew Dumplings Drop dumplings filled with Porter Cheddar into a slow-simmered beef stew. The beer notes in the cheese complement the gravy perfectly. A heavy-hitting winter family dinner. Recipe #2: The "Pub-Style" Rarebit Melt this Porter-veined cheese with a splash of cream and mustard, then pour over thick toasted bread. It is the ultimate savory brunch for friends who love traditional pub food. The Appetizers Appetizer #1: The "Visual Mosaic" Platter Simply slice the cheese to show off the dark marbling and serve with rye crackers. Its dramatic look makes it the instant star of any charcuterie board. Appetizer #2: Porter Cheese & Mustard Bites Place a cube of the cheese on a pretzel thin with a tiny dot of whole-grain mustard. The beer, pretzel, and mustard trio is a classic flavor profile that everyone loves.
