A firm, sweet goat’s milk gouda from one of our favorite New York State dairies. Lively Run Goat Dairy has been in operation since 1983, and in that time the cheesemaking has been passed down from Suzanne Messmer to her son Pete. Pete is an innovator, and has been adding to Lively Run’s lineup of delicious goat’s milk cheeses. Finger lakes Gold is akin to the great goat’s milk goudas of the world (Midnight Moon, Black Betty, etc) and packs a unique and distinctive punch! The younger wheels have a firm creamy paste that is bright and nutty, and milky. Pairing Notes: malty ales, IPA’s, Belgian-style beers, lagers, bourbon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Chardonnay
