Beer 3-Cheese Sauce

No ratings yet

This easy beer cheese sauce is terrific served with French fries, steak fries, or pretzels. I use a combination of Parmesan, mozzarella, and gruyere for the sauce, but really any cheese that melts would work well. Also, for a great beer flavor, use one that is full-bodied, such as a stout or brown lager.
