Cheddar and Beer Fondue

I made this fondue with Natural & Kosher cheese and a crispy hard cider, but you could use any beer or even apple juice for the liquid. We really had fun with the dippers: fresh soft pretzels, green apples and blanched broccoli florets. I figure if we are going to eat a bowl of cheese at least we have to get our vegetables in.
