Beemster Chef Series: Chris Holland
Flavor comes first. I’m not snobby. If it’s awesome I put it on the menu.
Beemster Chef Series: Andrea Machuca-Kirkland
At Bruey, Machuca tried Beemster cheese for the first time—Beemster XO with a cup of Intelligentsia coffee. “There were these butterscotch, caramel, and salty flavors from the cheese that melded with cocoa notes from the coffee. It’s crazy how well it all came together.”
Beemster Chef Series: The Team at Brick Store Pub
“It was delicious, like no other cheese I’ve ever tried. That nuttiness, that creaminess! It also has a great sweetness to it, like caramel. Overall, it’s a perfect cheese.”
Beemster Chef Series: Justin Bucenec & Nate Lawrence

Beemster Chef Series: Julie Cogley
…then I tried Beemster and fell head over heels in love. It was creamy and delicious. I never had anything like it. It was my catalyst for working with cheese more, for falling for cheese.
Beemster Chef Series: Lia Lira
Lia sees a lot of synergy between Beemster and her own cooking philosophy. “Beemster provides everything I want—a really great flavor, a responsible business model. It’s delicious but it’s not divisive.”
Beemster Chef Series: Justin Brunson
Although Brunson sees himself first as a “meat guy,” he has a special place in his heart for Beemster.
