1 stalk celery (finely chopped)
1 carrot (finely chopped)
1 clove garlic (minced)
¼ cup flour
1 teaspoon dry mustard
12 ounces beer
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 bay leaf
¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
½ teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (or 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme leaves)

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh vegetables, herbs, and spices will give your soup the best flavor. If possible, use organic ingredients.
  • Don't skimp on the beer: The beer is what gives this soup its unique flavor. Use a good-quality beer that you enjoy drinking. A light beer will result in a lighter soup, while a dark beer will give you a richer, more robust flavor.
  • Shred your own cheese: Pre-shredded cheese is often coated with cellulose, which can prevent it from melting smoothly. Shredding your own cheese will ensure that it melts evenly and creates a smooth, creamy soup.
  • Season to taste: Every palate is different, so be sure to taste your soup and adjust the seasonings accordingly. You may want to add more salt, pepper, garlic, or cayenne pepper to taste.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: Beer cheese soup is delicious on its own, but it's even better when served with your favorite toppings. Some popular choices include croutons, bacon, green onions, and shredded cheese.

Conclusion:

Beer cheese soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a great way to use up leftover beer. With its rich, cheesy flavor and the addition of beer, this soup is sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a warm and comforting soup, give beer cheese soup a try. You won't be disappointed!
