A perfect appetizer for game days this Pub Style Beer Cheese Dip is super easy, has minimal ingredients, and is done from start to finish in 5 minutes.
I’m a huge dip fan, we make dips for pretty much any and all gatherings. We are also huge on game days, so they are absolutely served then too.
One of my favorite dips is this Pub Style Beer Cheese Dip! This dip is so flavorful and creamy and not your typical beer cheese dip.
The normal Beer Cheese Dips that you will see are super creamy, almost like a queso consistency. With this Pub Style version, it is more soft and fluffy.
I absolutely love that about this recipe! And everything is made in the food processor so there is less mess to clean up, and we all know that is a selling point.
We usually make this dip a least once a month if not more. We just cannot get enough of it and everyone always asks for it, especially my husband.
Since it is so easy, and it’s one of my favorites too I have no hesitation at all when it comes to whipping up this Pub Style Beer Cheese Dip!
Some of my other favorite dips that we have on our site include: Greek Yogurt Dip, Bacon Ranch Chicken Dip and Smoked Crab Dip.

WHAT KIND OF BEER IS BEST FOR THIS DIP?
If you are going for sweeter flavor we suggest you use a pale light. If you want a little stronger flavor, use a darker beer.
I used Samuel Adams Boston Lager is our favorite when making this dip, and goes great with the flavors in this dip itself.
You can use any brand that you want depending on what flavor you are going for with this Beer Cheese Dip.
WHAT KIND OF CHEESE SHOULD I USE?
Block cheese is a must for this recipe, do not use shredded. We used a sharp cheddar for this as we wanted the actual cheese flavor to come through with the other ingredients.
You can experiment with different cheeses, but I would highly suggest using a cheddar of some sort.
