Equipment

double boiler
Cheese Grater
Mixing bowl

Ingredients

8 oz sharp yellow cheddar grated
4 oz Emmental Cheese grated
6 oz Light Lager Beer
3 cloves Fresh Garlic finely chopped
2 tsps. Mustard Powder
2 tbsps. Flour
1 tsp. Hot Sauce
1 tbsp. Worcestershire Sauce

Instructions

Grate both the Cheddar and Emmental swiss cheese into a large mixing bowl. Place it aside.
Add the beer, garlic, dry mustard, and Worcestershire sauce to a double boiler. Heat it on medium-high heat on the stovetop until warm.
In the mixing bowl that contains the grated cheese, add the flour and toss it with the cheese until it's evenly distributed.
Add 1/3 of the cheese mixture to the double boiler and whisk until fully combined.
Repeat step 4 by adding the remaining cheese (small amounts at a time) until it's fully combined and melted into a sauce.

Notes

To reheat beer cheese, you can add it to a microwave and microwave in 30-second intervals until creamy.

A double boiler is recommended but not required. You can cook it in a saucepan on the stovetop, but you'll need to keep the heat low and stir frequently to prevent burning.
