As written, this recipe cannot be good at all. I made a half batch, thankfully, but had to make many changes just to make it edible.
There is way too much beer--it makes it bitter, cut it by half and increase the Chicken stock.
Too much white pepper, cut to 1/3 of it.
No slurry with corn starch. Rather, puree the potatoes after cooked. Then add a cup or more of half and half, or heavy cream.
Add at least 50% more cheddar cheese... at least that much more, or double it.
