Crockpot Beer Cheese Soup
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!

Hello! I just made this soup today, for my hubby’s Birthday. I let it cook in the crock-pot on HIGH for 6hrs. I stirred the cheese continuously after adding a cup of at a time. I ended up using 5 cups of cheese. Hubby LOVES this. Thanks for a great recipe. We live at 8,100ft so altitude does not affect it.
I made this soup today and it was fantastic!! I made homemade pretzel rolls to go with it–delicious! Thank you for my new favorite soup recipe!!!
The soup tasted pretty good and the cheese melted okay, but it turned out really watery (followed all the directions). I’m now adding some potatoes to it in the crockpot to see if it thickens up a bit.
I use this recipe often as a base for my beer cheese soup. I just add potato, polish sausage, and bacon. For beer I use Leinie’s Oktoberfest. I also don’t blend it. After that, it is Wisconsin approved.
I have made this soup several times, but I always make it on my stove top. I always use finely shredded sharp cheddar and I never have any problems with it melting. Also to avoid lumps and thicken the soup properly, I mix the cornstarch and cheese together in a bowl and whisk it in gradually. It works very well.
