Method
Grate all your cheese and get all the ingredients together to be sure you have everything you need. In a large bowl combine the flour, baking powder, slat, dried mustard and the Italian herbs. Using a whist mix them all together.
Remove a 1/ 2 cup of the white cheddar and 1/2 cup of the Gruyere cheese and a 1/4 cup of the Parmesan and set aside for the topping of the bread. Add the rest of the cheeses to the flour mixture. Using your fingers mix in the cheese so all the cheese is coated in flour.
In a separate bowl combine the beer, sour cream, tomato juice, eggs and worcestershire sauce and whip till mixed. Add the liquid to the dry ingredients and mix with a spatula just till mixed. Do not over mix.
Pour the mixture into 2 greased 9x5 loaf pans and press down with a spatula. Sprinkle the cheese that you set aside earlier. Place the loaves into a preheated 350 degree oven and bake for 50 -55 minutes or till done. Allow to cool in the pans for 15 minutes before removing them from the pans. Place on a wire rack to cool.
