If the cheese aged for enough time, it’s getting practically lactose in the process.

Lactose has a specific mouthfeel in beers, so I buy it would change cheeses dramatically.

Beer has lactose? TIL

Sometimes! Lactose is not easily fermentable, so it leaves residual sugars and a unique silky feel. Mostly in darker beers, like milk stouts or chocolate porters.

And what you absolutely don’t want in beer is lactose fermenting bacteria. It gives it a cleaning rag stench.
