Wow this was good. Used Boulevard Amber. Wonderful taste and consistency. This recipe is a keeper. -
This is a great cheese fondue. I used 1 cup of swiss cheese and 1 cup of emmenthal cheese (and the cheddar cheese). I used Stella Artois for the beer and we added just a little bit more beer. The taste is wonderful. It was a bit thick so next time we will probably add more beer. Thanks Nyteglori :) Made for Best of 2011 tag game -
We loved this variation on cheese fondue! I used Redbridge and served with a variety of vegetables, grilled potatoes, bread cubes, and smoked sausage. Thanks for sharing! ZWT7

Married mother of twins. I very seldom ever use recipes as they are written, always modifying and adjusting them. Many times I will take three or four different recipes and come up with a new recipe based on those.
