If you’re like me, you love adding cheese to your sandwich. But often I stick to a cheddar such as a mild, or old cheddar cheese.
I was wondering this morning, as I begin to think about lunch, whether anyone has any recommendations of artisan cheeses that I could put on my sandwich – and with what meat or vegetable? Please comment below so I can begin to experiment!

We welcome the following post submitted to us by Mill Street Brewer Sam Corbeil - a beer and cheese pairing guru:
A few years back, I managed to parlay my brewing credentials into a side job doing beer and cheese pairings at a little cheese shop in Toronto known as The Leslieville Cheese Market.
Since that time, I’ve come to discover that both these storied products have a lot in common. Mainly, they both originated in the farm house and both share that simple, earthy, down home flavour that we all crave and love so much. And maybe that’s why they taste so great together; a shared history and a shared flavour profile.
From Stouts and Stiltons, to Bocks and Gruyeres. From ESBs and Aged Goudas to Pilsners and Cheddars, there are just so many flavour combinations out there it could take you a lifetime to try them all. And Ontario, your own back yard, is bursting with a plethora of hand crafted beer and hand crafted cheese. Products made with time and care, products made with the heart and dedication they deserve.
In Part 2, Sam will offer up some suggestions for pairing beer and cheese. What are your favourite combinations?
You can usually find Sam Corbeil behind the booth at festivals, pouring samples of the beer he helps produce, but for now, here he is, with his daughter Olive (Photo sourced from http://greatcanadianpubs.blogspot.com/)
