Middleton, WI – Do you like beer? Do you like cheese? If you answered ‘Yes’ to both you are in luck! – Merkts (a division of Bel Brands USA) now produces two unique craft beer cheese offerings: Merkts Beer Cheese with Capital Supper Club Beer and Merkts Beer Cheese with Capital Mutiny IPA Beer.

“I grew up in Milwaukee, and my parents served Merkts cheese at every party they hosted – and they had a lot of parties!” said Scott Wiener, President of Capital Brewery. “When I got the call from the fine people at Merkts I was more than happy to co-operate on this product launch” he added.

Both products are aged cheddar cheese spreads, and are packaged in 7 oz. containers. You can find them for sale in over 14 states throughout much of the Midwest and Great Plains. More markets will continually be added as the product launch rolls on. Find it in your area by entering your zip code and either ‘7 oz. Capital Supper Club Beer’ or ‘7 oz. Capital Mutiny IPA Beer’ in the ‘Find a Flavor’ field at: www.merkts.com/Locators.aspx

Both styles of cheese are also available in the Capital Brewery Gift House in Middleton, WI – just in time for the holiday season.
