Directions

MELT butter over medium heat in large thick-bottomed non-reactive pot. Add onions, leeks, shallots and garlic and cook, stirring often, until soft and translucent, about 15 minutes.

ADD beef broth, beer and bay leaf, bring to simmer and let cook for 20 minutes.

REMOVE from heat and let stand for about 10 minutes to cool slightly.

PUREE in batches in blender until smooth; return to pot. Season with salt and pepper. Rewarm soup and stir in thyme. Serve topped with grated cheese and chives.
