This was a good recipe, but I found the beer flavor to be a bit overpowering(which is probably just me!) and I was thinking the soup would be a little thicker and creamier.The cheese didn't melt smoothly into the broth. I think these things are easily fixed, so the recipe is definatly worth another try. The broth part was very flavorful Made for ZWT 7.Reply
