"There's no best beer for making a beer cheese dip or sauce, but I'd say the wrong beer to make beer cheese is the kind that's used most often: Cheap, flavorless lagers," Higgins said. "For the most part, the best-selling beers in the world are great at being refreshing and bubbly, but they don't deliver much flavor. Beer cheese doesn't care about refreshing or bubbly."
"While a budget-friendly lager won't break the bank, the flavor of your beer cheese will suffer as a result. These types of beers are designed to be inoffensive on the palate when consumed on their own, meaning they lack the complexity to stand up against the cheese's sharp notes. This ultimately creates a beer cheese that's flat and one-dimensional, with the cheese overpowering the flavors present in the beer."
"Instead, choose a beer with flavors that sound good - citrusy-scented and bitter IPA or roasty oatmeal stout, or caramelly, sour cherryish Flanders Red Ale - and try it out in a beer cheese sauce and it's gonna be fun and delicious!"
