- 1 (12 fluid ounce) bottle light colored beer
- 2 (12 fluid ounce) bottles dark beer
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 3 egg yolks
- 3 egg whites
- Pour the light and dark beers into a large saucepan. Stir in the sugar, pepper, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg and bring to a boil.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and cream. Whisk in a little bit of the hot beer so the mixture warms without scrambling the yolks. Stir into the beer while whisking constantly over low heat to avoid curdling. Refrigerate until cold.
- Just before serving, whip egg whites in a medium bowl until stiff but not dry. Fold them into the soup and serve.
