I just made the dip part of this recipe. I used a wheat beer and served it with sections of soft pretzels I bought in the freezer section. I also did it in the nuke and then put it in a small crock to keep it warm during the party. Great and easy recipe!

I made this dip for a party at work. Our students loved it, and I'm still getting compliments about what a "great cook" I am! I melted the cream cheese in a crockpot on "high" then added the rest of the cheeses. I stirred pretty continually, and then when the cheese was partially melted I added the beer. When the dip was pretty well mixed I put the crockpot on low and voila! I had to add a little extra beer occasionally throughout the night, but other than that it's such an easy, yummy dip! I served it with pretzel sticks.

DEEEE-LICIOUS! I added a few dashes of Frank's Red Hot (because my boyfriend loves Frank's on everything), but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. Used a mild wheat beer. Instead of serving in a breadbowl, I served as a dip with soft pretzels. A total crowd-pleaser - I'll definitely be making this again.

Beer and Cheese....can you go wrong??? Wonderful, this needs to be kept in a heating dish, I used a small crock pot to keep it fluid, otherwise it gets rather hard, pretty fast. This recipe was delicious, I used a hearty beer and the flavor really came through. If you don't like a strong beer flavor I would choose a light beer or an ice brew. YUMMMM

I made this for a small family get together and the men loved it. My boyfriends brother called the next day for the recipe he wanted to make it for the football game! I served it with bread, chips, crackers, and carrots. Every last drop was gone!

The flavor of this was very good and it's very, very hearty and filling. If I make this again, I will thin it just a little bit by adding more beer. It's very thick and as it cools it gets thicker. We didn't like it much with bread because it's so creamy. It was much better with crackers and pretzels (anything with a crunch).

Last summer we had some hot beer cheese dip served with soft pretzel bites at a pub in Waterbury, VT. It was delicious and we've all been craving it. This recipe tastes just like the one we ordered at that pub - my family loved it! Since it was taking a while for the mix of 3 cheeses to melt on the stove, I put them in the microwave (before adding the wheat beer) for a minute or so, stirred, and then poured them back in the pan on the stove to add the beer. That really speeded things up. I had one box of 6 soft SuperPretzels that I heated in the microwave without the salt. Then I cut each pretzel into 6 or so pieces with a pizza cutter. Ideally, we could have used a second box (12 pretzels total)as 6 were not enough. We ended up eating the rest of the dip with Wheat Thins and carrots - it was so good we didn't want any to go to waste!
