Beer Kaese

Made in Monroe, Wisconsin, Beer Kaese is a robust and pungent American classic with a German/Swiss pedigree. Containing no beer, this cheese was registered in 1933 as a celebratory salute to the repeal of Prohibition, hence the name "Beer" Kaese. The unique flavor of Beer Kaese comes from aging. It is shelf-cured, resulting in an aromatic, golden yellow rind. Beer Kaese has an earthy, slightly tangy, full-bodied flavor which makes it an excellent pairing with rye or pumpernickel bread and a slice of onion with a glass of red wine or, preferably, beer. Alternatively, try this cheese served for dessert with a glass of port. This is a great cheese for fans of Limburger, Brick, or Liederkranz.
