Jaysun's Wisconsin 3-Cheese & Beer Soup image

This was given by Jaysun 23 to members of the Regional Forum. Since I've been looking and find he never officially posted it to Zaar, I felt I should do it for him, since the recipe seemed exceptional. It is from the Horse & Plow in the American Club in Kohler, Wisconsin. Hope he doesn't mind! (Of course, Wisconsin cheeses are recommended!) This makes a large pot of soup.
