Steps:

• Simmer 8 ounces of the beer.
• Stir in dissolved cornstarch solution and return to a simmer.
• Reduce heat to low.
• Add butter and cheese and stir until smooth.
• Add all remaining ingredients.
• Place in ovenproof serving dish.
• Brown quickly under broiler and serve immediately over thick toast with broiled tomato wedges.
• Note: Any cheese mixture that is left can be refrigerated and used as an excellent spread for crackers or toast.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat; blend in the flour, salt, pepper, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and hot pepper sauce; continue cooking and stirring until the mixture is smooth and bubbly, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; gradually stir in the milk; return to heat and stir continually until the mixture comes to a boil. Slowly pour in the beer; cook 1 minute more while still stirring. Melt the Cheddar cheese into the mixture in small portions until completely incorporated. Remove from heat.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat then whisk in the flour until the mixture forms a thick, pale roux; remove from heat and set aside.
• Use a 2 quart saucepan and bring the ale to a simmer; whisk in the roux, a little at a time, until mixture is the consistency of peanut butter (you may not use all of the roux).
• Whisk in the heavy cream, Worcestershire sauce, and the dry mustard; return to a simmer and fold in the cheddar and Stilton cheeses.
• Continue cooking until the mixture is smooth; remove from heat.
• Transfer mixture to a shallow, oven-proof dish or ramekins and place under broiler to lightly brown the top.
• Serve with the toasted baguette slices (crostini).
