More and more, beer is being used as an ingredient in some awesome recipes that would be perfect for your summer get together. Allrecipes.com offers over 150 options that cleverly include your favorite beverage as a key ingredient.

Just listen to some of these possibilities. The names alone will have your taste buds in a tailspin. How about Sausage, Peppers, Onions  & Beer, or imagine Beer and Brown Sugar Steak Marinade? The possibilities are endless!
