I have been searching for a soup recipe like this! We love the cheddar ale soup at a local brewery, and this is a great make-at-home substitution. I omitted the bacon and used chicken broth in place of veggie broth. I use store brand sharp cheddar and a New Belgium ale. It was a little less cheesy than I wanted, so I threw in another handful of cheddar at the end. Delicious!
