Any favorite cheeses to pair? Tonight I bought a Dulle Teve from the mad brewers and a double cream cheese (d'affinois). I also got Iberico which I think is similar to Manchego but made with more animals.
Both seem to be working pretty good. I asked the cheese monger if she knew what would be good with tripels and she said "are those like dark stout kind of beers?" and I knew I was on my own.
I think these cheeses are good because they are somewhat mild and don't overpower the tripel. If anything I guess the tripel overpowers the iberico a bit. But the double cream is perfect for it because it's so rich and the alcohol of the triple really helps cut through that.
This beer is delicious by the way.
