Steps:

• In a large stockpot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the carrots, peppers and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, until the vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes. Add the flour and cook, stirring, until well incorporated, about 5 minutes more.
• Add the chicken stock, beer and half-and-half and cook, whisking often, at a very slow simmer over medium-low heat for 15 minutes.
• Add the cheddar to the soup by the handful, whisking each batch until smooth. Add the Worcestershire, hot sauce, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, the nutmeg, mustard and lemon juice, and stir to combine.
• Puree the soup in batches in a blender (holding a thick towel over the lid to prevent overflow) until very smooth.
• Just before serving, reheat the soup until steaming and taste for seasoning, adding salt as necessary. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish each bowl with a swirl of mustard oil, a dollop of goat cheese and a sprinkle of thyme.

Add milk, broth, and beer in a stream, whisking, then simmer, whisking occasionally, 5 minutes. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, mustard, salt, and pepper.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan over medium heat, stir together carrots, onion, celery, and garlic. Stir in hot pepper sauce, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Pour in chicken broth and beer; simmer until vegetables are tender, about 12 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Meanwhile, heat butter in a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Stir in flour with a wire whisk; cook, stirring until the flour is light brown, about 3 or 4 minutes. Gradually stir in milk, whisking to prevent scorching, until thickened. Remove from heat, and gradually stir in cheese. Keep warm.
• Stir beer mixture into cheese mixture. Stir in Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and dry mustard. Adjust for hot pepper sauce. Bring to a simmer, and cook 10 minutes. Serve topped with popcorn.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a dutch oven (I used cast iron) a thick steel pan would work too though.
• Add onions and celery and saute until softened about 4-6 min.
• Stir in the flour.
• Mix in the broth and milk until ingredients are well mixed (it may help to do this slowly so the flour does not lump up on you).
• Add the potatoes and bring whole thing slowly to a boil.
• make sure you stir occasionally so it does not stick and burn at the bottom of the pan.
• Once boiling reduce heat to low and simmer with the lid only partially covering pan for about 10-15 minute.
• Add the broccoli and the beer (the darker the beer you use the more pronounced the flavor will be).
• cook for an additional 15-20 minute NOTE: the longer you cook at this stage the softer your vegitables will be.
• cook longer if you prefer them to be soft.
• Stir in the Cheese (Extra sharp cheddar is the best as it has a strong enough flavor to survive the rest of the ingrediants. Especially if you are using a dairy Aisle cheese such as kraft. in this case you must use Extra sharp.).
• Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, salt, and hot pepper sauce (I prefer to add a little more hot pepper sauce to give the soup a little bit of a kick.).
• Serve Hot.
• NOTE: this keeps well in the refrigerator, and I would heat it up by the bowl in the microwave.
• It got better each day-- However I am sure it will not keep forever so if you plan on keeping it more than a week I advise you freeze it.
