I use beer when I make red beans and rice. I also have another recipe that I call slow cooked barbecue pork chops.
8 thick cut boneless pork chops
1 jar spicy barbecue sauce
1 bottle of beer (preferably a good beer like Guinness)
1 large onion, sliced
2 bay leaves
Mix together barbecue sauce and beer in a large non stick pot. Add boneless pork chops. Add bay leaves and sliced onions. Cook slowly for 2-3 hours. Add water as necessary to prevent sauce from getting to thick. Serve over cooked basmati rice.

I've never personally used beer as an ingredient. But I have had food with beer in it. I usually don't like beer, but it's pretty good when it's cooked in food.

I saw a number of recipes in this forum, using beer as an ingredient.

I have used red wine to make beef stew before, but have never used beer for any other recipes. Beer to me taste a bit bitter and it's gassy.

I was wondering how does the final dish taste like if beer is used as an ingredient. Will there be any bitter taste at all?

For fry dishes, at least, the bitter taste goes away. I had a fried twinkies phase once and putting beer in the batter helped give it a bit of crunch and body.
