About

Every party has some essentials, a few things that separate it from a regular get-together: some decor, some amazing snacks, and a feeling of freedom and exhilaration! Cheddar Bacon Beer Dip brings the incredible snack and the sheer joy, and it doesn't look too bad on the table either, so that's all three boxes checked! This dip is delightfully creamy and savory, with hoppy beer and sour cream bringing the tang and melty sharp cheddar bringing the stretch and satisfaction. Plus, how can you go wrong with bacon bits in every bite? You can't. Cheddar Bacon Beer Dip is perfect for dunking with soft pretzels, but trust us, your guests will be looking for anything to dip into it, so they don't have to miss a single drop.
