Used onion powder instead of onion. Seemed like it mostly just tasted like cream cheese, was bland. Felt like needed to increase most the other ingrediants, like pepper sauce, beer, worc, etc. Wasn't that great with bread, better with Ritz crackers. Don't think I'd bother making it again. Better dips out there. =)

This was tasty, but could have used just a little more kick. I used Sourdough bread as that was all that was available (and I was too busy to make my own). This is relatively quick to throw together, but the baking time is the killer - plan ahead. Toasting the extra bread is key here. Very yummy!

I doubled the recipe and baked it for the recommended time in a casserole dish. It was really good and a big hit at my party. I served it in a warming dish with french bread slices that I broiled in the oven to toast. Delicious!

This recipe was fantastic... only changes I made included 1. using 8oz of sour cream instead of one of the cream cheese packages, since I didn't have enough cream cheese, 2. throwing a few shakes of cayenne pepper in instead of the hot sauce and 3. baking it in a casserole dish covered with foil at 300 degrees for 1.5 hours (last 10 minutes uncovered) since I didn't have a bread bowl.

I tried this recipe but found it to be bitter. Beer, grated Onion hot pepper sauce and Worcestershire sauce are all bitter ingredients. I would suggest less grated onion or use sweet onion (vadalia) I think with the sweet onion the recipe would be less bitter. I would try this recipe again with some adjustments.

Very good, even with modifications. I had no cream cheese or onion; used sour cream instead and some onion soup mix along with everything else in this recipe. I didn't think it was good at first, but after the flavors blended in a couple of hours- it was great -it was finished off quickly at the party...

This is a great recipe! For those who like a bit more zesty flavor, i made some minor changes. I added 4 cloves of pressed garlic in place of the onion. 4 teaspoons instead of 2 for the Worcestershire, and lemon juice. 2 teaspoons of hot sauce. I use tapatio. 4 tablespoons of beer instead of two. I also added a 1/2 cup of finely grated sharp cheese. I used parmasean, but you could use any sharp cheese with a little bite to it. Other than those few minor tweaks, this is the best hot clam dip i have found.

This was quite good. Next time I'll try it with jalapenos for sure! My only problem is that there wasn't enough bread for the dip, so we were burning our fingers tearing the bread bowl apart near the end, haha.
