"I got this recipe out of a magazine called Bay Life North that they give for free in Traverse City. I changed this recipe alittle to fit our tastes and turned out perfect. I used Shorts (which they make here) beer called Cabin Fever... The cheese sauce you will find in pasta sauce section, I used Cheesy Ragu double cheddar."
