What Beer is Best for Roasting Chicken?
The answer is simple: Whatever you feel like! This could be your favorite brew or something trendy you bought a while ago and now don't really want to drink anymore. It will only give the chicken a hint of beer taste, not too strong. So, you can't really go wrong on your choice of beer.

Beer Can Chicken
You have to try this way of preparing a whole chicken once in your life! While the chicken is dry roasting on the outside, the inside is being bathed with steamy beer, keeping the meat moist while adding a subtle hint of your favorite brew. Once done you'll enjoy falling-off-the-bone meat, encased in perfectly seasoned, crispy skin.
