This homemade, healthy Irish pub cheese is perfect for your next gathering, or just your next cheese-and-crackers craving. It’s so simple to make, and is easy to make ahead, which reduces the stress on the day of the party (stress? What’s that!?)
Feel free to substitute non-alcoholic beer for real beer (but it’s still yellow tier so there’s no tier-benefit to the substitution.)
I found garlic cheddar at my local farmer’s market. You can look for it anywhere that sells gourmet cheese. (See notes for what to do if you can’t find garlic cheddar.)
Servings : 10
Ingredients
- 16 oz garlic cheddar cheese see notes
- 4 oz cream cheese
- 1/2 cup beer

Notes
If you can't find garlic cheddar cheese in the gourmet cheese section of your local grocer's, use a strong (irish preferred) cheddar instead, and add 2 teaspoons bottled minced garlic along with the other ingredients.
