Three artisan food and drink producers – Bristol Beer Factory, Trethowan’s Dairy and Mark’s Bread are collaborating to bring the Bristol public two unique tasting events this summer.

On Monday July 19th BBF are hosting a Beer, Bread & Cheese Tasting & Tour at the Bristol Beer Factory Brewery, next to Mark’s Bread on North Street, Southville. The second event takes place on Tuesday August 24th in the stunning St Thomas the Martyr Church, Redcliffe.

These events are a fantastic opportunity to taste artisan Cheese, Bread and Beers, and learn how they can work together in harmonious pairings. The Cheese Maker, Baker and Head Brewer will be providing a very hands-on introduction and education about their products which are the result of years of knowledge and passion.

Trethowan‟s Dairy makes the multi-award winning Gorwydd Caerphilly, winner of Best Traditional Cheese at the World Cheese Awards. They run stalls at Borough Market in London and St Nick’s Market in Bristol, where their regular Wednesday Raclettes are becoming something of a legend!

Mark’s Bread is a small craft bakery making hand made bread from the best ingredients using traditional methods. Many of their breads are made without the addition of commercial yeast, but with naturally occurring ‘wild’ yeasts and friendly bacteria cultivated in levain (sourdough). Other ‘yeasty’ breads are made with a pre-fermentation (poulish).

Bristol Beer Factory will be showcasing some new and exciting beers at the events including ‘Mountain Goat’ IPA, winner of their inaugural Homebrew Competition, a German-style Wheat Beer, as well as the National Award winning ‘Milk Stout’.

Both events offer a splendid opportunity to enjoy tasty artisan cheeses, specially baked breads and superb beers. Events start at 7.30pm and cost £25 per person.
