BEER CHEESE CORNBREAD
Beer cheese soup is a rich, creamy comfort food favorite of my family in the Midwest. I love when the crispy croutons on top soak up a little flavor from the soup -- and that's what sparked the inspiration for this twist on cornbread! It's slightly sweet like a Northern-style cornbread, balanced with a hint of hops from the IPA and sharpness from the Cheddar.
