I don't see it around anywhere, but my dad used to make this when I was a wee lil tike.
It really is a great soup and can be eaten as a meakl itself with plenty of bread for dipping, or my favorite is to have it instead of a salad with a nice BBQ'd rib eye.
Do you have and special Wisconsin cheeses that you think make the best soup?

just out of curiosity, does the type of beer that you use affect the flavour? what sort of beer do you use for the soup? lager? ale?
i'd like to try it out...too bad that cheddar costs so much here and is very difficult to find. any particular cheddar to use for this recipe?

I usually just use Bud Light - or whatever I have on hand, but a lager or pale would be best (I think - never tried it with a darker beer).
I have been using a simple medium cheddar - works great!

If your going to use a sharp cheddar cheese, your going to want something with bitterness to match with the piquant high acidity. Any of these would work great with sharp cheddar: Samuel Smith's India Ale Fuller's India Pale Ale Brooklyn East India Pale Ale Anchor Steam Beer AleSmith IPA Two Hearted Ale Stone India Pale Ale Victory HopDevil Ale Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA

The recipe I have always used calls for white sharp cheddar cheese and I have always used cheap lighter beer, tastes bueno. Just to let you know, popcorn is the shit! French bread tastes great, too.

I think cooking with wine should be the same with beer. Don't use anything that you wouldn't drink.
