Guinness Cheese Sauce is a modern Irish recipe for a classic cheese sauce made from a blend of milk, Guinness, spices and cheese thickened with flour. The full recipe is presented here and I hope you enjoy this classic Irish version of: Guinness Cheese Sauce.
Set a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat. Add the butter and when foaming whisk in the flour. Continue cooking the roux, stirring constantly, for 1 minute until the flour is no longer raw and the mixture has darkened slightly.
Whisk in the milk and continue heating the mixture until it thickens slightly (about 1 minute).
Now whisk in all the remaining ingredients and heat until the cheese has melted and the mixture is smooth.
The beer cheese will adopt a brown colour due to the Guinness in it, if you want it to have a more orange fake cheese colour, add 1 drop of red and 2 drops of yellow food colour (but I usually don't bother).
Pour the resultant Guinness cheese sauce into a serving dish and serve with your favourite ingredients for dipping. This also works as a cheese sauce for burgers, hot dogs and the like.
