Beer Cheese started off as a complimentary appetizer with crackers, radishes, and celery in the Winchester, Kentucky, restaurant of John Allman in the 1940s. The Allman family still makes the recipe, and now the city has embraced the snack, throwing an annual festival in its honor.

In a food processor, pulse the cheese, garlic, Worcestershire, mustard, and cayenne until the cheese is finely chopped and the seasonings incorporated. With the processor running, slowly add the beer and process until all the beer is added and the dip is smooth. Let sit overnight in the refrigerator before serving with crackers or crudités.
