What's the best cheddar cheese to use?

I'm not sure what kind of Beer to use. I like Dos Equis or Bohemia. But is that to dark ? I like that flavor but I don't want to overwhelm the soup.

Would you please give some info on each recipe, ie sodium content etc. my husband is on a low sodium diet so I make everything from scratch and watch the sodium

Very rich but good, comfort soup. Tip: If you add the beer (which is optional) you will need to add more cheese to thicken and also balance the beer flavor.

This is totally worth the wait! Made the house smell amazing and tasted great! I now can't believe this is the first time I've made cheese soup, since I'm so obsessed with cheese haha! This was delicious!
