Two bowls of Crockpot Beer Cheese Soup in white bowls with pretzel rolls

My husband and I love Beer Cheese Soup. It’s totally a must order when we find it on a restaurant menu. It has to rank up there in the top ten best soups ever. So naturally, I started the quest to create a Crockpot Beer Cheese Soup that I could make at home.  Ya’ll know how much I LOVE my crockpot. 🙂

This here Crockpot Beer Cheese Soup is perfect for gatherings as well. Instead of having the usual chips and dip appetizers, present a crockpot full of the delicious soup to sip on. I highly recommend serving this soup up with some big ole’ pretzel buns for dunking. Better yet, if you can find pretzel soup bowls to serve this in, HELLO AMAZING!

  2. Once time is up, remove lid and stir in shredded cheese, and heavy cream. Stir until cheese is melted. Next whisk in cornstarch. Recover and cook for 10-15 minutes longer.
  3. For a smooth soup (which we prefer for this soup), use and blend soup in batches, or use an immersion blender before serving.

    I don’t have an immersion blender. But would a hand mixer work?

    1. Do you have a blender Stephanie? I think using a stand blender in batches would be your best bet.

  2. I am currently making the soup now for the first time! I am just wondering, how should I know when “time is up”, whether it is 6, 7 or 8 hours?

    1. What size crock pot are you using? Do you know if it runs hot?

  3. 5 stars
    This soup is wonderful. A local place used to serve this in the winter, and when they closed I missed it. Tastes just like my old favorite. Thank you!

    Great recipe; have made it numerous times and absolutely love it.
    I want to make a larger batch in a larger crock pot, though, for a party we’re having.
    Do you know if simply doubling the ingredient quantities is the way to go for it to turn out exactly the same?
    What’s your experience here?
    Please let me know, thanks!

    1. Yes Brock! I have made a double batch before and just doubled the ingredients 🙂

  5. Could i make this using a light beer? Usually the only beer i stock other than flavored beers is miller light, and i wanted to avoid buying extra beer just for this soup if possible

    1. I think that would be fine Leanne. If you would like more of a “beer” taste, you might want to add a little extra if you are using a light beer.
