Stinky Bklyn | Cheese

Bayley Hazen

Raw Ayrsihire Cow | Aged 4-6 Month

Made at Jasper Hill Farm in Greensboro, Vermont by Master Cheesemaker Mateo Kheeler and team.

Jasper Hill are the rock stars of American cheese, and this is their first hit. Bayley Hazen is a classic natural rind, English style blue. The smaller fat globules in the Ayrshire milk breakdown quickly in the agin process, and help the cheese maintain a drier profile. The paste is nutty and crumbly, with a slight sharpness. If there was no blue, Bayley Hazen might taste like a good English hard cheese. The mold is relatively mild with a subtle mouthfilling warmth with faint hints of anise and parsley. Bayley Hazen is named after a nearby military road built by Washington to fight the British on the Canadian front. Wiley Canucks!

Eden

Raw Jersey, Guernsey, Shorthorn, and Brown Swiss | Aged 2-4 Months.

Made By Sprout Creek Farm, Poughkeepsie, NY

Eden is a rare sort of Washed rind, very firm and yet pungent. It almost seems to be a washed rind slapped on a firmer style of cheese. No matter, It is a success. Eden has strong acidic notes, balanced by the lingering nutty flavors of a washed rind. The cheese is made on an educational farm started by the brothers and sisters of the sacred heart to help kids get back to the land.

Rennet: Animal

Pairings: Belgian Ale, Mountain Whites, Bourbon.

Gran Queso

Pasteurized Friesian Holstein |

Made at Roth Kase in Monroe, WI

Roth Kase has a long tradition of Swiss cheese making in the family, so it's no wonder that their attempt at a "Manchego" style cheese for "tapas" should end up having more in common with a swiss cheese. The cheese has excellent flavor: the robust piquancy of a good Emmentaller but with a richer backbone and more sweetness. It's certainly a grand cheese, it just has nothing to do with any Spanish cheese I know. Gran Queso won several major awards at its inception, including an ACS first place in 2004, and a gold at the World Cheese Awards in London in 2005.

Rennet: Vegitarian

Pairings: Alpine and Rhone whites, Brown Ale, Coffee, Vodka and Eau de Vie
