Ingredients

• 3 tbsp butter
• 3 tbsp flour
• 1 cup beer (Blue Moon)
• 1/2 cup milk
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 tsp dry mustard
• 1/4 tsp Worcestershire sauce

Preparation

Step 1

In a small sauce pan, melt butter over medium heat. Add flour and whisk to combine, cooking about one minute until smooth. Gradually add in beer and milk, whisking constantly. Add garlic, dry mustard and Worcestershire sauce. Switch to a wooden spoon and stir frequently until thickened, about 5-10 minutes. The sauce should begin to coat the back of the spoon. Remove from heat and stir in cheese. Add cayenne pepper and salt & pepper to taste.
