Combine ½ tsp garlic powder, ½ tsp onion powder, 1/8 tsp cayenne, ½ tsp salt, and 1/8 tsp pepper, set aside.

Heat the milk in the microwave for 45 seconds.

In a 10-inch cast iron skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and stir for 1 minute.

Slowly incorporate the milk and then the beer, whisking as you pour. If you add it too fast, the roux will thin out too much.

Add the seasonings, Worcestershire sauce, and the mustard. Let the mixture bubble gently, increase heat if needed.

Allow it to continue to gently bubble and thicken for about 5 minutes.

Reduce heat to low and let the base cool down. Gradually sprinkle in cheese and stir to combine.
