How to make this easy beer cheese dip recipe

How long does beer cheese dip last in the fridge?
Once you have made the dip, transfer it to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and it will keep for 3 to 4 days. It will sit out for about 2 hours, and then after that it is best to refrigerate it. If you use a full fat cream cheese, you can also freeze the dip in an freezer safe airtight container for up to 4 months.

How much beer is in this dip?
I used about 1/2 a cup of beer in this dip and it was the perfect consistency for me. You can add a little more if you prefer it to be a bit thinner. If you add too much beer and the dip is too liquidy, in a separate bowl, mix a tablespoon of either flour or cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of the dip until the mixture is smooth. Add the mixture back to the dip and stir until combined and desired thickness is achieved.
Top Tips To Make This Easy Beer Cheese Dip Recipe
