I loved this dip, but made it a little bit differently. My grocery store didn't have velveeta (I guess they're too good for huge hunks of processed cheese!) so instead, we bought 8 oz of Cabot hot habanero cheddar. I cut it into several cubes, and melted it in the toaster oven for a few minutes, then just put the 8 oz cream cheese right on top for a couple more minutes, probably about 10 minutes total. I stirred them together, which takes a few minutes because it is still chunky but I didn't want to burn the cheese. Once it got a little smoother I poured in beer (a red ale) just a little at a time, probably about 1/4 bottle, to get the right texture. It was amazing! I was worried that using the unprocessed cheddar would make it too oily or otherwise a bad texture, but it was perfect, even when reheated in the microwave the next day. We ate this with Mall Pretzels from this website - perfect combo. The Cabot habanero cheese was very spicy - just a warning.

My mother used to make one similiar to this. Use Wise Spread cheese instead. Sautee the garlic. and start with 1/4 cup beer. Keep adding until you get the consistency and taste that you want. That way it won't be to messy or runny at all. Also when we make it we put it in a round pumpernickle loaf. We hollow it out, fill it with the dip and put the top back on. You can tear off pieces of the loaf and dip it or you can cut up some italian bread. While also using the inside of the loaf that you took out as well for dipping.

I enjoyed this recipe.. I made 2 different dips, A spinach dip and this one.. I thought the spinach dip would be the good one and i was going to not like this one.. Turns out, i ruined the spinach dip and really liked this one. Maybe, the people on here who messed up used the wrong kind of cheese? Or possibly didn't get it whipped correctly.. because I had no problem making it. I loved it. Thanks.

This was a great dip! I served it with pretzels and it was gone in no time. If you want to make ahead and refrigerate before serving, just heat on low in microwave and stir until creamy again. Yummy!

The overall taste of the ingredients was very good. I followed the recipe, but it turned out to be very thin. Although it was messy, everyone like the taste of it. (Next time, I will add the "wet ingredient" slowly, mix until I get the right consistency, and then drink the rest!)

This is a hit at every party. I use a can of the Woody's extra sharp cheddar spread and garlic powder. I also recommend microwaving the Woody's and cream cheese to make it a little easier to mix together. Perfect for a football party!

I followed the instructions to a T. My husband even reviewed the recipe to see if I did this one correctly. This was terrible. My whole family tried it, including my parents who came for dinner. It was thrown out.
