Afterglow

Washed in cherry ale and aged to a dense, fudgy texture, Afterglow is a washed-rind goat cheese that brings quiet funk and real character. The beer adds subtle fruit and lift, rounding out the savory depth of Blakesville’s pasture-raised milk. This is the cheese you reach for when you want something bold, but not brash, something that plays well with prosciutto, rye crisps, or tart fruit preserves. It’s structured, aromatic, and always the most talked-about square on the board.

Blakesville is known for thoughtful, small-batch cheeses made entirely on their farm using their own Alpine herd. From pasture to cave, everything happens on site, allowing for a level of detail that’s rare, and it shows.
