The taste of beer is subtle, but it's just enough to complement the cheese in this rich and creamy soup. For a slightly sweeter version, you can use apple juice instead of beer. -Holly Lewis, Swink, Colorado

CHEESY BEER BRAT SOUP
A cheesy, Wisconsin winter soup utilizing local beer. As with any recipe there are hundreds or thousands of variations on this basic recipe. We set this cheese/beer/brat soup apart from others with a couple primary distinctions. Being a beer nerd, when I add beer to a recipe I consider the style of beer seriously. To me beer is not just whatever you happen to have in the cooler/fridge etc. Here we've slected a locally available pale ale from Ale Asylum in Madison, WI. It lends some great color to the soup and the prominent hop presence in this ale adds a great flavor without being overwhelming. To replicate this recipe without Ale Asylum's Hopalicious you can substitute any quality pale ale or IPA. Ask your local specialty retailer for tips or look for anything with "pale ale" or "IPA" on the bottle. Sierra Nevada Pale Ale is probably the most widely available and is a suitable substitute. If you've any other questions, feel free to ask! Secondly, the brats. Brats should be cooked ahead of time in 12 ounces of the same beer that is being used in the soup. We typically cook our brats in a pan with beer and most of a whole onion until they're just cooked through then I throw them on my Big Green Egg and, using only natural lump charcoal WITHOUT lighter fluid, brown them gently. Then slice and quarter as per the recipe. Fianlly, I can't recommend enough that fresh ingredients be used whenever possible, especially the fresh-pressed garlic and fresh ground black peppers. Cheers!

Steps:
- I know the "Recipe Desription" is long, but please read my notes on the beer and brats. It makes a tremendous difference in the finished product.
- Heat olive oil in soup pot over medium heat.
- add onion, clerey and carrots and cook about 15 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionaly.

- Return soup to low heat and add bratwurst, cooking until heated through, approximately 5-7 minutes.

- Send me a note and let me know what you thought!
Tips:
- Choose a flavorful beer. The beer you use will have a big impact on the flavor of the soup, so choose one that you enjoy drinking. A dark beer will give the soup a richer flavor, while a light beer will produce a more delicate soup.
- Use a variety of cheeses. This will give the soup a more complex flavor. A good combination is to use a sharp cheddar cheese, a mild cheddar cheese, and a Parmesan cheese.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices and herbs. A little bit of garlic, onion, and thyme can go a long way in enhancing the flavor of the soup.
- Serve the soup with a crusty bread or a salad. This will help to round out the meal.
Conclusion:
Cheesy beer soup is a hearty and flavorful soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. So next time you are looking for a delicious and comforting soup, give cheesy beer soup a try.
