Aged Brick

Aged Brick cheese is similar to Limburger in taste and smell, with a semi-soft texture and a pungent, earthy aroma and flavor. While not for the sensitive palate, it’s perfect for the adventurous customer! It melts quickly for use on top of hot foods. Serve on rye bread with mustard and onion.

If you enjoy Aged Brick cheese, you might also be interested in Limburger cheese.

*The curing process of this cheese and the enzymes produced can cause the packaging to bloat. This is natural and does not mean the product is no longer good.

Pairings and Complementary Flavors:

Cocktails: Old Fashioned, Moscow mule, Negroni, Bellini, Mimosa
~ An Old Fashioned will provide a slightly sweet and balanced accompaniment to the cheese.
~ The Moscow Mule is a refreshing contrast to aged brick cheese.
~ A Negroni with gin and Campari can contrast the creamy, buttery flavors of the aged brick cheese. At the same time, a Mimosa or Bellini offers a fruity effervescence that contributes a refreshing touch.

Wine: Pinot Noir, Merlot, Chardonnay, Rosé
~ Pinot Noir or Merlot’s medium-bodied depth and fruitiness harmonize with the aged brick cheese.
~ An oaky Chardonnay establishes a rich and indulgent pairing.
~ The dry, crisp, and slightly fruity structure of a Rosé contributes a refreshing contrast.

Beer: IPA, Porter, Stout, or Brown ale
~ The hoppy bitterness of an IPA can cut through the richness of this cheese to create a refreshing effect.
~ Porter or Stout, with its roasted flavors and smooth hints of coffee or chocolate, complement the aged brick cheese.
~ Brown Ale has a malty sweetness that harmonizes with the creamy and buttery flavors buried in an aged brick cheese. These beers complement the intensity and nuttiness of the natural brick cheese and create a pleasant balance.

Accompaniments:
~ Baguette slices or crackers. A plain or lightly seasoned cracker offers a neutral base and satisfying crunch to complement the creamy texture of the cheese.
~ Apples, juicy pears, or grapes can provide a refreshing and slightly sweet contrast. Dried fruits like figs or apricots add a hint of sweetness and a chewy texture.
~ Honey or fruit preserves add a touch of sweetness and create a delightful divergence.
~ Thinly sliced cured meats such as salami, capicola, or prosciutto contain savory, slightly salty flavors for a harmonious pairing.
~ Olives or pickles, with their salty brine and acidic elements, cut through the richness of the cheese, balancing the flavors.
~ Nuts like walnuts, almonds, and pecans will complement the brick cheese’s nutty characteristics.

Suggested uses:

  • Adds intricate flavor and a creamy texture to a cheese board
  • Elevate burgers, sandwiches, or pizza with its rich flavor.
  • Make a cheese fondue to create a unique dipping sauce for bread and vegetables
  • Elevate casseroles, macaroni and cheese, or nachos
