Pub Cheese Spread

Fall Gathering Time bring on the Snacks!!! I will be the first to admit – this pub spread is not my favorite BUT so many others really liked it – I had to post it!

6 ounces dark amber or lager beer, room temperature
8 ounces mild cheddar freshly grated
1 – 7.5 oz Tub Philadelphia Jalapeno Cream Cheese Spread
2 garlic cloves minced
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon stone ground mustard
1 teaspoon hot sauce
1/2 cup Chopped – Green Onions/Chives – Use some in Spread and some garnishing (see note)

Pour the beer into a liquid measuring cup – stir/whisk the beer to remove as much carbonation as possible. Set it aside.

Place the cheeses and garlic in a food processor and pulse until it’s in coarse crumbs.
Add the Worcestershire, mustard, hot sauce and green onions/chives – blend until combined. With the processor on, slowly stream in the beer until the mixture is smooth, about 5 full
minutes. The cheese will look mousse-like. Scoop it into a bowl, top it with the green onions/chives. Serve with crackers, pita chips, pretzels, bagel chips, veggie sticks or whatever you prefer!

NOTE: We like green onions and chives and the onion flavor, so I tend to use more.
