\"Four

Small Bar is to host the latest in its series of cheese and beer nights on Thursday 7 December.<\/span><\/p>\n

In what is the 7th iteration of the event since the city centre bar opened in October 2016, punters can pay \u00a315, plus a booking fee, to try four pairings. <\/span><\/p>\n

The event promises a \u201ccacophony of collaborative craziness and pairing perfection,\u201d and is open to both fanatics of beer and cheese and those with no expertise whatsoever.<\/span><\/p>\n

Richard Jones, who runs the events and is Small Bar\u2019s assistant manager, is particularly keen to highlight the night’s accessibility. <\/span><\/p>\n

He said, \u201cthese events are not just for beer nerds and we don\u2019t expect you to have a Cicerone certification to understand the beers you have in front of you,\u201d adding that \u201cit\u2019s an entirely inclusive and open-minded forum for discussing the pairings and just chatting about beer and cheese in general.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\"A

As with the previous versions of the event, the cheese will be provided by The Cheese Pantry<\/a>, a local cheese stall situated in Cardiff Market, and on this occasion the beer will be provided by Siren Craft Brew.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Each beer is matched with a cheese that complements it in terms of \u00a0flavour, aroma and texture. And although Richard says the staff normally agree on the combinations, there are also times when they disagree completely.<\/span><\/p>\n

These often prove to be the most interesting pairings, since, as Richard puts it, \u201cwhat better way is there, to get people engaged and give us a new perspective on it, than when they\u2019re having a healthy disagreement?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Since the first beer and cheese night, the attendances have steadily grown, and around 40 people are expected at the latest event. Given that Richard was initially unsure if there would be much demand, this is surely proof that the venture has been a success.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
