Steps:

Pour beer into a bowl and whisk until beer loses its carbonation, about 30 seconds. Set aside.
Place shredded cheese into the work bowl of a food processor; add garlic, dry mustard powder, black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, salt, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and flat beer.
Process until smooth and creamy, pulsing a few times, scraping the sides, and blending for about 2 total minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning. If adding more seasoning, pulse a few times to mix.
Transfer cheese spread to a bowl and sprinkle with a pinch of cayenne pepper. Spread tastes best when refrigerated overnight to blend flavors, but it can be served right away if needed.

BEER CHEESE DIP

Legend has it that the original beer cheese (a cold spreadable version) was born as a bar snack in Winchester, KY, in the 1930s. A warm version, served as a dip, later made its way into local haunts.

Steps:

Bring the lager, mustard powder and Worcestershire sauce to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium heat and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, then reduce the heat to low. Add the cream cheese and cook, whisking, until melted and smooth. Gradually add handfuls of the cheeses, whisking to melt between each addition; do not let the mixture boil. Cook, whisking, until completely smooth, then add the cayenne and garlic powder and season with salt to taste. Serve warm or at room temperature; the sauce will thicken as it cools.

6 ounces lager beer
1/2 teaspoon mustard powder
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
4 ounces cream cheese
4 ounces Monterey jack cheese, grated
4 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, grated
Pinch cayenne
Pinch garlic powder
Kosher salt
