Tips for Making Beer Cheese Dip for Pretzels

Darker beers will have more flavor, you can always add more in, but 6 oz is perfect for me!
To make the beer cheese dip spicier, add more cayenne pepper, red pepper flakes, or jalapenos
If you leave out the beer cheese for pretzels, it will thicken. If it gets too thick add a little milk.
Have leftovers? Store in an airtight container and reheat in the microwave, stirring often.
If you find the beer cheese to be too thick immediately while cooking, reduce the amount of cheese OR increase the amount of beer
