While the flavor is good, I am very disappointed by the consistency. In the description, the soup is referred to as a bisque, which indicates a thicker, creamier soup. Despite the fact that I cooked the milk base long enough to thicken (which is not even clear in the directions), the finished product was thinner than creamy tomato soup out of a can. I was very disappointed as I love beer cheese soup, and this recipe received 5 stars.

Delicious!!!! We have tried other Beer cheese soup recipes, but this is the one we were looking for! We ate it with a side of roasted veggies (cauliflower, potatoes, onions, and red peppers). My husband must have said "Yum" like 100 times during dinner. We will definitely be making this again! Thank you!
