Yum! After reading the reviews, I decided to go with a lighter beer. We loved how it turned out. Simple and tasty, great for a fall weeknight meal. Made for the Oct 08 veggie swap.

These were really good carrots and I gotta love a recipe where I get to open a bottle a beer and oops, there some left. Guess I will have to drink it so it won't go to waste. Makes cooking dinner all the more fun. I used a light lager and 1/2 teaspoon sucanat. Otherwise followed the recipe with great results. The carrots were nicely glazed and sweet with that little something of flavor that makes you go hmm...Thanks for posting. Made for my Babes for ZWT4.

These were very very good. I did use a dark lager but for safety's sake added a 1/2 tsp of brown sugar. It made a wonderful glaze once it boiled down

I am always very sad to give this kind of review, but I do agree completely with CraftScout that the carrots were very bitter. I did not finish mine. Sorry I couldn't rate higher. Posted for ZWT4 Kumquat's Kookin' Kaboodles. ~Sue

Great recipe, but I used the wrong beer! I used German Warsteiner (didn't have a dark lager). We've been on a 'try different beers' kick & this is what was in the fridge. I think a Belgian Framboise would be FABULOUS in this. Made for ZWT 4. (Hi Teammate!!)
