Pub cheese, a cracker, and a cheese knife

Pub cheese is a type of soft cheese spread or dip prepared using cheese as a primary ingredient and usually with some type of beer or ale added.[1] While beer cheese is made with beer, pub cheese can be made without alcohol.[2] Pub cheese is a traditional bar snack in the United States.[3]

Pub cheese is sometimes prepared using a mix of processed cheese and pure cheese.[2] It can be made with smoked cheeses or liquid smoke added to impart a smoky flavor.[4][5] It is typically served with crackers or vegetables, which may be dipped into the cheese or used as a base for spreading.[6] It is also used as a topping on sandwiches, such as hamburgers.[7]

It is a mass-produced product in the United States.[8][9] The dairy brand Président sells pub cheese, and Trader Joe's has a store brand of pub cheese.[9][10]

Some bars, breweries, public houses and restaurants produce their own versions of pub cheeses.[3][11][12][13]
