Howard's Creek - The Authentic "Snappy" Beer Cheese

Discover Authentic Kentucky-Made Snappy Beer Cheese

Gluten-Free Beer Cheese Products Made with Real Milk

At Howard’s Creek Authentic Beer Cheese, we do things differently—because real flavor demands real ingredients. Our award-winning beer cheese is certified by the REAL Seal Dairy Association, ensuring every bite is made with 100% real milk and absolutely no fillers. It's also lab-tested gluten-free (<5 PPM), making it the only beer cheese on the market that carries both icons on its label.

Rooted in Joe Allman’s legendary 1930s recipe and authenticated by his son in 2010, our Kentucky-made snappy beer cheese has been keeping tradition alive since 1979. Unlike mass-produced brands, including popular names like Kentucky Beer Cheese, our artisan recipe delivers bold, authentic flavor and texture that mass-produced brands can’t match.

Whether you're in Kentucky, across the U.S., or in Wisconsin—America’s cheese capital—you’ll recognize the difference when real craftsmanship meets rich Southern flavor.
