Danish Beer Soup (Ollebrod) image

This is a traditional and simple Danish dish often served as the only item in the meal, along with Danish beer. There are many local Danish variations on the recipe. It hits the spot when you are recovering from a hangover, but does well at other times also, like cold winter evenings. For countless years, it has been a staple in the rural areas of Denmark, much like grits here in the South.

This soup was very time-consuming to make. I don't think it's worth the effort.

The soup was a bit bland. I think it could have used more spices.

This soup was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with a less sweet beer.

This soup was easy to make and very flavorful. I used a dark beer, which gave the soup a nice rich color. I also added a bit of extra cinnamon and nutmeg, which I think really enhanced the flavor.

I've never had beer soup before, but this recipe was delicious! The beer flavor was subtle, but it added a nice depth of flavor to the soup. I also liked the addition of the apples and raisins.

This Danish beer soup was a hit with my family! The flavors were rich and complex, and the soup was very filling. I especially liked the addition of the rye bread croutons, which added a nice crunchy texture.
