Burgerville Hopyard Cheddar Burger returns

Local pacific northwest fast food chain Burgerville is bringing back their Hopyard Cheddar Burger for their 60th anniversary. Last seen on the menu during the 2020 Oregon Craft Beer Month, the grass-fed Carman Ranch beef burger is topped with hop-infused Hopyard Cheddar Cheese from Rogue Creamery. Also for the anniversary is a festive Cherry Cheesecake shake, both burger and milkshake are available through the end of April.

More from a press release:

 

The Cherry Cheesecake shake will be in available both in dairy, and non-dairy versions made with Coconut Bliss. On March 10, Burgerville’s Birthday, a dairy-based cheesecake bite will garnish the top. The cheesecake is made by Chuckanut Bay Foods from Blaine, Washington. 

 

The Hopyard Cheddar burger first appeared on the menu in 2019, and this will be the first time it is paired with Carman Ranch grass-fed, grass-finished beef. Northwest grown, organic green hops impart a subtly herbal, bitter flavor to Rogue Creamery’s classic cheddar, a delightful combination on this special burger. 

 

“Burgerville and Rogue Creamery are a dynamic duo in Northwest food. We’ve been creating delicious burgers for years, and this year’s Hopyard Cheddar Burger is one we think guests will really enjoy,” said Jamie Powell, Burgerville’s Vice President of Food and Menu Development.

 

David Gremmels, Rogue Creamery owner and artisan cheesemaker added, “Hopyard is one of my favorite cheeses we make, and it pairs perfectly with grass-fed beef. It’s such an honor to partner with Burgerville to bring yet another delicious combination to our customers.”

 

With over 75% of its ingredients grown, raised, or produced in the Pacific Northwest, Burgerville is committed to increasing local sourcing by 5% in 2021, and to blazing a trail for conscious eaters by serving Northwest-raised pastured meats, organic cheese, and products made using real, local ingredients. 

 

Rogue Creamery’s roots date back to the early 1930s when the Southern Oregon dairy began raising dairy cows and producing cheese. French-style blue cheeses were introduced in the 1950s, and the rest is history. With world-class award-winning cheeses, 3rd party Animal Welfare Review certified operations, and B-Corp “Best For the World” certification, Rogue Creamery is a leader in using business as a force for good, and bringing the Northwest “taste of place” to eaters everywhere.

 

Chuckanut Bay Foods has been producing handcrafted, all-natural cheesecakes since 1992. Inspired by the beauty of the Chuckanut Bay region in Washington, their bakers take pride in creating cheesecakes with no artificial ingredients or preservatives, meaning every bite is full of flavor. 

 

Guests can order the Hopyard Burger, Cherry Cheesecake shake, or any other Burgerville treat using the BV app, also available from the Apple Store or Google Play. Curbside pickup or delivery are available. LocalVille rewards members will receive special Burgerville birthday perks throughout the month of March. 

 

As always Burgerville continues to follow strict food safety guidelines. According to the CDC, there is no current evidence to support transmission of COVID-19 associated with food. All restaurant teams are following state and local health and safety guidance by wearing masks, social distancing in kitchens, frequently disinfecting high-touch surfaces, and changing gloves often. Burgerville’s expanded paid sick leave policy encourages and supports all employees to stay home if they or their family members are sick.
