On our way home from the Common Ground Fair we stopped in Hallowell to have dinner at The Liberal Cup, where I ordered my favorite item on their menu as a starter: Beer Cheese Soup.
This soup is made with different beers and different cheeses every day. I have had it once or twice a year since being introduced to The Liberal Cup, and each time it has been just a little different but always amazing. This time it featured brown ale and bleu cheese.
The first time I tried this soup, I only had a spoonful from my husband’s bowl, and I didn’t expect to like it. Now I cannot have dinner at the Liberal Cup, or sister restaurant The Run of the Mill, without ordering a cup of this soup as a starter.
