There is quite a bit going on with this recipe, but it has beer, and it has bacon. So what more could you possibly want? See how to make it here.

2. Beer Can Chicken

Grab a can of beer, take a few swigs (you know, quality control), then stuff the can into the rear of the chicken and pop it into the oven. Full recipe here.

So the brisket is braised in beer, and then covered in a sweet glaze of bourbon and peach purée. The result is just too incredible for words. Try it for yourself.

4. Hoppy Hush Puppies

The hops from the IPA you use will help counter the inevitable oily flavor from deep frying delicious little mounds of sweet cornmeal batter. Here's the recipe.

5. Beer Brats

Boil some brats in some beer before throwing 'em on the grill, then put one in a bun with some mustard and sauerkraut for a delicious result.

6. Beer-Battered Fish

Beer-battered fish is great because the booze ensures that the fish stays tender and juicy while creating a super-crisp golden crust. This is a must-try.

7. Beer Cheese Dip

Take a few cheeses, throw in some seasoning and some peppers, top it off with a good IPA, and bake until it's gooey enough to spread on a pita chip or crostini. Trust me, this is a great use of your beer.

8. Beer-Braised Brussels Sprouts with Bacon

The caramelization of beer makes the perfect glaze for these strange little vegetables, and when you pair that with bacon, well, see for yourself.

9. Beer Ice Cream Float

So simple, yet so delicious. By using beer (preferably a stout) you'll end up with a thick and foamy head of sweet vanilla with notes of chocolate and malt. It might just be perfect.

10. Beer Doughnut Balls

Take a deeper and fruitier beer to add the flavors of dates, raisins, caramel, and spice to your doughnut holes. Pair with beer (as if you needed such a reminder).

And whatever you do, why not treat yourself to the rich flavor of new Budweiser Crown, a golden amber lager crafted from the finest ingredients.
