For a bit of local cheese ,try some Belton Red Fox , made in Whitchurch . (Dare I say it from milk from some of my cows):D
St Agur is scrummy I agree , Stilton needs to be young and creamy IMO

Not sure how many enjoy the real ale on here :),but a favourite from the North Wales border of mine , is Station Bitter ,brewed in Oswestry .
Another new brewery is in Shrewsbury ,Battlefield brewery , and they produce some amazing real ales , Gold , Citrus Burst , and a strong IPA called Sabut Yung and others :cool:
Yes I like St Agur as well but the best Camembert i've had is this:Quote:

And you can 'bring it on' if you store it for some days in the fridge... it gets really smelly and quite runny and is lovely.. :)
Living where you do , I would be over the water to fetch a few cartwheels of the proper stuff !! HaQuote:

Yeah, that's a good one. I often buy that and as you say, it gets better whilst it's stored. Yum!!Quote:

Barry likes his real ale; personally I dont much. Used to like Belhaven best when younger; although not real ale, but is close enough. Think Croc Dundee summed things up for me with his "Well, you can live on it, but it taste like shit.":eyebrows:Quote:

Brie lovers? There is only ONE, and that's the highest quality Brie de Meaux - anything else pales into insignificance in comparison: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brie_de_Meaux
Choose your favourite producer, by all means, but if you're a mature Brie lover, there is *nothing* to touch Brie de Meaux!!
:exactly:
Oh, the Colli would go very well with that, too!

Don't know that one Marco. I shall keep an eye out for it! I'm a bit of a cheese addict, so anything good is appreciated.Quote:
