Easy Beer Cheese

From the recipe collection of Tara Ippolito

I love this recipe for easy beer cheese. The sauce is so creamy, delicious and loaded with bold cheese and beer flavors.

I like ordering this when I go out to restaurants and pubs. It’s the perfect thing to snack on with friends.

Now, I’m so happy that I can make this right in the comfort of my own home and enjoy it whenever I want.

The recipe is super easy and simple to put together. ?

I’ve made this for so many parties, family get-togethers, and countless football Sundays. It’s always a huge hit among my friends and family.

If you’re a beer fan, you’re going to love this cheese dip recipe. The flavor of the beer really shines through in this dip.

So, be sure to choose a beer that you are happy to drink on its own. The darker the beer, the more bold the flavor, and vice versa.

Don’t be afraid to experiment with different beer flavors and cheeses, also. There are so many variations and possibility to this recipe so don’t hesitate to take some chances on flavor combinations.

I hope you give this recipe a try. If you do, I know that you love it just as much as my family and friends do too. ?

Easy Beer Cheese Variations

I like this recipe made just as it is, but here are some ways to change it up if you’d like to.

• Beer- Use a light beer like Bud Light for a more mild flavor or darker beer or a richer flavor.
• Spice- add some chopped jalapeños or cayenne pepper for a little kick.
• Consistency- if you like a thinner dip, add more liquid to it.
• Cheeses- play around with the cheeses here to create different flavors. Just be sure to shred the cheese yourself. It will melt much better that way.
• Dipping- This dip is great with pretzels, pigs in a blanket, and whatever else you can think of.
