Creamy Beer Cheese Soup Recipe

My beer cheese soup recipe is to-die-for. It is rich and creamy with that beautiful hoppy flavor that hails from the beer and says "home."

INGREDIENTS

– Beer Belgium wheat or American pale ale – chicken stock – half and half – sharp white cheddar cheese – pepper jack cheese – bacon – onion (yellow or white) – carrot – red pepper

STEP 1

In your big soup pot or dutch oven fry up the bacon. Remove the pan from heat and scoop out the bacon pieces and drain them. Leave the grease in the pot for flavor!

STEP 2

Return the pot to the heat. Saute the onions for a few minutes and then add the veggies and saute those. Let the veggies cook until they are soft and begin to have some color.

Add in the garlic and saute that for a few minutes. Add in the butter, thyme sprigs, mustard powder, ground pepper, salt, and hot sauce.

STEP 3

Let the butter melt completely then add in the flour and stir it up. Cook for 3-5 minutes.
