Instructions

  1. Add the butter into a medium saucepan.
  2. When the butter is melted and bubbling add the flour. Whisk until combined.
  3. Gradually add the beer, whisking constantly, until combined. Cook for a minute over low heat.
  4. Add the milk and spices: onion and garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and cayenne. Cook over medium-low heat for a minute, whisking from time to time. Reduce the heat to low.
  5. Add shredded cheese in 2 additions, whisking after each addition until the cheese is melted.
  6. When all the cheese has been incorporated, season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Leave to cool and thicken (about 5-10 minutes), then enjoy!

Notes

  • What kind of cheese to use: use any melting cheese that you like. Other options: you can use just sharp cheddar, just Gruyere cheese (amazing), Gruyere and smoked gouda, cheddar and smoked gouda. For the best flavor purchase a block of cheese and grate it yourself! Pre-grated cheese contains substances that prevent it from clumping in the bag - such cheese may be harder to melt and just doesn't taste as good.
  • The best beer for beer cheese dip: a pale ale or lager beer (just use a beer that you like to drink). Non-alcoholic beer can also be used! Storing and freezing instructions can be found in the post.
  • If your cheese sauce is grainy or split just mix it in a blender (or use a hand/immersion blender).
  • Calories: 1 serving (1/8 of the recipe). This is only an estimate!
