Beenleigh Blue is a soft blue cheese from the United Kingdom, made from sheep's milk. The paste is pale, moist, and creamy, with green-blue veins running through it. It is unpressed, so the body stays tender rather than hard and dry. A thin rind, often kept in check once the blue appears, does not dominate the taste. The flavor is salty and tangy, but also sweet, with a lighter feel than many sheep's milk blues.

Harbourne Blue is a British brand of blue cheese from the United Kingdom, made from pasteurised goat's milk. The paste is firm and dense, off-white, with blue or grey-green veins. A young wheel can taste clean and lightly yoghurty, while a mature wheel turns spicy and assertive. It is a goat's milk blue, not a fresh goat log and not a cow's milk Stilton. The name refers to the Harbourne, a river in the southwest of England, rather than to a harbour town.
