Ascutney Mountain

Ascutney Mountain is an American Alpine-style cheese hailing from Vermont. It was developed from a recipe for Swiss Appenzeller. The cheese is made from raw Jersey cow milk and it ages for 7 to 10 months. The texture of this hard cheese is dense and chewy, while the rind is natural.

The aromas are sweet and herbal, while the flavors are complex, nutty, mild, and sweet, with hints of cream, sweet onions, and hazelnuts. It's recommended to pair it with malty brown ales.
