This was a solid stew recipe (though I didn't bother thickening the broth at the end), but there was nothing especially outstanding about it. I used Tecate beer because that was what I had, but I imagine that it would be better with a darker beer.

Added 24oz of dark beer instead of 16 and had just enough juice for 6 hearty bowls!! Great Recipe!

0.222 cup flour what the hell kind of measurement is this???

  That only appears if you modify the serving size from what was originally submitted, which of course aren't always nice neat measurements because you're messing with the formula.

Not for me I guess, but then again I'm not much for beer. Just thought I'd give it a try.
