Two Step Cheese

By Dancing Goats Farm | Made in Acme

Using milk from its own herd, Dancing Goats Farm creates goat cheeses that have become the darling of foodies and are on the menus of numerous Calgary restaurants including Rouge, Deane House and Thomsons’ Kitchen and Bar. A recent addition to the lineup of cheeses with dance-inspired names, Two Step is a semi-firm, six-week-aged cheese washed in Blacksmith ale from Calgary’s Village Brewery to create a dark-brown rind and a subtly bitter flavour. The creamy goat cheese melts beautifully on pizza and hamburgers and goes just as well by itself as a snack or on a charcuterie board.

$8 to $11 per 150 grams
