She printed it off Veg Web and gave it to me. I made it last night and served it over whole wheat spaghetti:
This stuff is so awesome! It's got a whole tube of Gimme Lean sausage, two kinds of beans, and a can of Papst Blue Ribbon Light (my favorite cheap beer!). I love the way the beer gives the chili a tangy taste, and it was even more delicious for leftovers today.The only change I made to the recipe was halving the hot sauce (it calls for 1/4 cup!) and omitting the cup of water, which it calls for in addition to the can of beer. It seemed like water would lessen the beer's intense flavor and really water down the chili. I like mine thick!
Later this week, I'll definitely be using this chili as a topping for homemade oven-baked French fries.
Note to the testers: I have FINALLY posted a couple new recipes on the tester site!

I love this idea! Thanks for the link. I've never added beer to chili but like it in stew when I've tried that before.
Mmm, chili.
Wowza!!
I've never tried beer chili. Wait, I live in Germany, I should try it, right? Especially when it looks so beautiful!
Yum! Total comfort food!
Beer chili! Yes! And I really love your idea to top fries with this chili. Pure genius!
dang. perhaps i could try beer chili with the spouse, but i don't eat things with alcohol in them, even if it's cooked. allergy issues.
i'm glad you're back online. as for beets, i just can't make myself like them. i guess every vegan has their vegetable they can't make themselves like.
now, to go to the tester blog...
that is a lot of hot sauce! wowzers! i would have halved it as well - good call! beer + chili sounds so damn delicious! i love me some pbr, too! yay!

I love me some chili, I should probably make sure to have it a time or two more before the weather starts to get warm again (I know its only February but it is 70 degrees here today). I would have never thought to put beer in chili, I bet that does add some yumminess!
That chili spaghetti sounds and looks delicious!
I always put beer in my chili, it makes it so good! Try putting a stout in next time, it will make it extra delicious.
I like my chili thick too- this looks awesome! Plus it gives you an excuse to buy some PBR- oh, the college memories I have with that beer!
Bianca, this sounds so yummy!! Especially because I am super hungry right now ::pouts::
My husband would be all over beer chili!
beer needs to find its way into more food.
looks delicious :)
PBR and chili is a beautiful idea! That Gimme Lean sausage is good stuff too - I bet this was delicious.
Oh Billy! That's hilarious! It looks fantabulous!
I love this chili recipe! I agree chili should be really thick. I also think chili should be hot, but a 1/4 cup hot sauce does sound like an awful lot!
