AKSNES IPA-JACK

Producer: Hindrum Gårdsysteri
Type: Hard cheese
Milk: Cow's milk

Flavour: Mild and round cheese with a long aftertaste of IPA beer.

Description: This is a typical jack cheese (like Monterey Jack) that is marinated in organic IPA beer from Reins Kloster (Reins Monastery). The cheese curd is bathed in relatively large amounts of IPA beer (1 part beer to 3 parts curd) for an hour before the beer is drained and the cheese curd is pressed into a shape. The cheese crust is washed with beer during the maturation process. The cheese has a very nice aftertaste of IPA with powerful and distinct fruity notes from the hops that is reminiscent of pineapple. A nice and fresh cheese that goes well with white wine, beer and champagne.
