Instructions

In a pan, preferably cast iron, over medium heat add cream cheese to melt. Blend in the cheddar and mozzarella cheese and whisk. Add the beer and stir. Blend in the Worcestershire Sauce, mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Whisk until all melted, about 6 minutes.
Serve with your favorite snacks.

Notes

Note 1: Neufchatel or low-fat cream cheese is lower in fat. Regular cream cheese can be used. I do not recommend fat-free cheese, it does not melt as well.

Note 2: Use block cheese and shred or cube. Pre-shredded cheese has a waxy finish and does not melt as well.

Note 3: Use a lager, ale, or stout.

Note 4: Serve this beer cheese dip with any of your favorite snacks: Homemade Pretzels, chicken tenders, chicken wings, chips, veggies, apples, any of your favorites.

Storage: The dip can be made ahead of time. Reheat in the microwave or stovetop. For stovetop, heat over low heat and stir occasionally so it doesn’t stick to the pan. A slow cooker also works well, heat on warm for about an hour before ready to eat.
