:drool YUM. I cook with beer a lot, it is wonderful in rich beef soups and as a marinade. I am not a Guiness fan, but maybe Sam Adams or a dark Belgium beer? I will have to try that. :thumb

Any dark beer is fine.

I sometimes use Newcastle or Firestone Double Barrel Ale, but Guinness is my preferred brand.

Have to agree with nana. For some reason I can' handle the taste of alcohol.
