I used a can of beer instead of the 2c water. Made a big difference. Thought this was really good. Will for sure make again, next time with landjaegger sausage.

This recipe sounded so good, but I think it was a waste of my good bratwurst. I was disappointed.

I love this soup. It is my favorite. The swiss cheese is such a different flavor addition. And it is quick and easy.
