"I was pleasantly surprised by this recipe! The flavor is fabulous and very unique. In order to make this soup vegetarian-friendly, I did not use chicken broth- Instead I used 1 cup of organic vegetable broth and 2 cups of water. The flavor certainly didn't come up short despite lack of chicken broth. Overall I thought this recipe was fantastic! Very unique flavor, delicious, fun, different and I will definitely make this again!" - Ldr429

    Really a nice soup. Served with crispy crumbled bacon and homemade sourdough croutons as optional tippets. Rave reviews. Will be making this again. Thanks for posting.

    This is fantastic. I added red and yellow bell pepper to the veggies and used Colby Jack cheese and a golden ale. The only additional change I'll make next time is to use half cream and half 1/2 & 1/2. Or maybe not. It really was delicious.

    We love this soup! I like to add some red bell pepper and a jalapeƱo to the veggies when cooking. Sooo yummy <3

    This is absolutely delicious! I used 1/2 sharp cheddar and 1/2 mild cheddar and then topped with chopped bacon ~ It is so good! It reminded me of the version I used to have at one of my favorite restaurants.

    This was a great soup. Having a family from Wisconsin I am use to creamy beer cheese soup so after I cooked the veggies in butter I put them in the food processor and pureed them. This gave a better consistency. All in all this is a great recipe

    Just like mom used to make.

    My husband loved the soup. We used a dark Leinenkugel beer and sharp WI cheddar. Next time we will find a really aged cheese to make it even tastier. It is a rich soup and pairs well with sourdough bread. Perfect for our WI taste.

    This is a great base recipe for me. I've made several additions to include using more vegetables and chopping them larger. This has become the perfect fall time comfort food in my house and my wife can never say no to a second bowl House

    Yum!! Is all I can say, and my boyfriend loved it! He asked me to put the left overs in separate Tupperware containers to share with his friends at work! Garnished with shredded cheese and parsley.

    My first time having the soup. I did add some salt but other than that it's true to the recipe. I was told by one person sampling that it was a bit strong on the onion side. But I didn't mind it.

    We loved this hearty soup! I didn't change a thing! The popcorn was the perfect garnish!

    Pretty good. I too did not add the onion. I had some extra Tex Mex Cheez whiz in the frig and used it for part of the cheese. So I did not need extra spice. Would have preferred a smoother soup.

    I added broccoli florets

    I use Newcastle and JW Dundees Honey Brown Lager for the brew mix (nice dark and rich with right amount of broth). Also, tried couple of new cheeses (1 cup ea of cracker barrell brand extra sharp and Wisconsin white cheddar cheeses, 1 cup of M. Jack and 2 cups of pepper jack) and they were by far the best scald I've gotten on this easy, comforting, and outstanding recipe.

    Also, the popcorn absolutely makes the dish for me. I like it spicy and the plain white micro pop kernals provide a great flame retardant for those who don't want the heat associated with my kitchen on this long time favorite. Enjoy!!!
