This sounds delicious, but recently I have had diverticulitis. So I can not do rotel. Any other suggestions to replace it?
You can skip them completely and just add some spice such as cumin. Or just regular tomatoes of any kind. Hope you love it!
Why light beer particularly?
I just like the taste. Any beer is great!
Made this with Miller lite and it turned out great! We used Rotel with habaneros for spicineness.
Awesome! So happy to hear it :)
With beer in it, I’m guessing it won’t be kid friendly? I’ve never cooked with alcohol before..
Hey Annie- all of the alcohol should cook out while boiling, so it shouldn’t be any problem. If you’re uncomfortable with that we have tons of other queso recipes though!
Oh Ok. I’m sure it’ll be fine. thanks!
FINALLY, a queso recipe without Velveta. Making this tomorrow to go with the MEMORIAL Day weekend BBQ brisket.
Yay! Hope you love it :) :)
Could I make this then move to a crock pot to hold/serve for the superbowl?
I havent tried it that way but Im pretty sure it would work great. This cheese seems to hold it’s creaminess pretty well. Hope it works great!
I know it’s late to chime in, but that’s what i did…I warmed a small crock pot while I made the dip, then transferred the dip when it was done. I turned the crock pot off at that point. It stayed warm king enough!
YAY!
I made the beer can cheese yesterday, as a test run for a super bowl party today. It was good, but kind of grainy. Any idea why that would be? I’m still making it today!
Hmmm…I’m not sure! Possibly the type of beer? I’m glad you liked it but not sure what could have caused the graininess. I hope it turns out great today :)
I used Yuengling lager yesterday…today I’m using Corona. We will see how it goes! I’m excited for Round 2!
Thanks for letting me know!
It came out grainy because the cheese was cold when you added it. Let both cream cheese and other cheese warm to room temperature before adding it to the beer.
Yesterday, I used corona and less cheese (maybe a half cup less.) My family said they liked the second attempt better, and that it wasn’t grainy! :)
Oh good!
Mine too. The tomatoes curdled it. That’s why. Next time a little baking soda in the tomatoes before adding should solve that problem.

Looks delicious, I want to make this on Thanksgiving. Can it be made earlier in the day and be reheated later in the saucepan or microwave? Thanks for a great recipe!
Sounds easy and delicious! Can’t wait to try. Thanks for sharing!
