2 (8 oz. ea.) pkgs. cream cheese, softened
1 (1 oz.) pkg. Ranch dressing mix (dry)
2 cups shredded cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese
2 tbsp. chopped green onions or chives (optional)
1/3 cup beer

Combine cream cheese and dry Ranch dressing mix with cheese and onions or chives. Stir together well and add beer. Mixture will seem to be too liquid but it will set up in the refrigerator if you leave it to chill for at least 4 hours or overnight.
