True Taste of Yorkshire Launched

The two well-known Yorkshire producers partnered to create a ‘true taste of Yorkshire’ – a combination of creamy mature Cheddar cheese with a deep beer flavour.

David Hartley, managing director of The Wensleydale Creamery said, “Black Sheep Brewery shares our proud Yorkshire heritage and passion for tradition and craftsmanship. It’s a privilege to partner with another award-winning Yorkshire producer to give cheese and ale lovers the authentic taste of the Yorkshire Dales we love so much!”

Jo Theakston, Sales and Marketing Director of Black Sheep Brewery, said: “We’re delighted to be part of a collaboration that brings together two iconic Yorkshire businesses, which are internationally-renowned for their quality produce. Our Riggwelter Ale perfectly complements the smooth taste of the mature cheddar.  It truly is a match made in heaven, or in fact Yorkshire, which is God’s own county!”
