Guinness and The Farmer Companies Launch Guinness Macaroni & Cheese

Guinness Boxed Macaroni & Cheese contains no alcohol and is a malty-flavored take on macaroni and cheese. The Guinness stout-flavored blend is made with Cabot Farmers’ Reserve ready-made cheese sauce combined with organic radiatore pasta. 

“We are incredibly proud to launch these products with VCPI,” says Declan Hassett, licensing manager, Diageo. “The combination of Guinness and Cabot Cheddar gives a gorgeous deep flavor that brings something new and exciting to mac and cheese. I think it is best enjoyed with a beautiful, nicely chilled glass of Guinness, Slàinte!” 

“We are pleased to introduce Guinness Macaroni & Cheese just before St. Patrick’s Day,” says Adam Farmer, chief executive officer, chairman of the board, The Farmer Companies. “It has taken VCPI and Guinness nearly two years to create the perfect blend of Guinness Stout flavor and Cabot’s Farmers’ Reserve Cheddar into a delicious, easy-to-use, ready-made liquid blend combined with organic radiatore pasta. When you marry two such iconic brands, the world’s most-popular stout and the world’s best cheddar, you had better get it right – and we did.”  

In addition to the original Guinness Macaroni & Cheese, VCPI plans to add several more flavors to the Guinness line including Caramelized Onion, Cracked Black Pepper and Black Truffle.  

The Guinness Macaroni & Cheese is a collaboration between Guinness and The Farmer Companies. The partnership was brokered by Guinness’ global brand extension agency, Beanstalk.
