  A Beginners Guide to Beer Cheese

1. To quickly remove any carbonation, pour the room temperature beer into a bowl, and whisk occasionally for 5 to 10 minutes.

2. Combine Cheddar cheese, cream cheese, Worcestershire, mustard powder, garlic powder, and onion powder in a food processor. Pulse until the ingredients are mixed.

3. Turn food processor to high and slowly pour in beer through the feed tube; blend until smooth. If mixture is too thick, add a bit more beer to reach your desired consistency.

4. Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with chopped chives. Store in the fridge, tightly covered, for up to 10 days.

Cook's Notes:

Make sure that all ingredients are room temperature before you mix them together. The beer should sit at room temperature for a couple hours to become flat.

I'd recommend not using a strong beer, as it may overpower the cheese's flavor.
