This Wisconsin Beer Cheese Soup is my absolute favorite! My friends and I can't get enough; it's excellent for parties, tale gaiting, in front of the fireplace or while watching a good movie. And somehow, it tastes even better when it is snowing outside. The Leinie's Red gives it a unique flavor that will surpass standard "beer" recipes.
