A few days ago, someone asked about a recipe for beer shrimp; here's one I happened to find:

Beer-Boiled Shrimp

1 12-ounce can beer 4 whole cloves 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 bay leaf 1 tsp. salt 1/2 tsp. dried dillweed 1/4 tsp. pepper 1 lb. fresh or frozen shelled shrimp Melted butter or cocktail sauce

Directions:

 In saucepan combine beer, cloves, garlic, bay leaf, salt, dillweed, and

pepper. Bring to boiling over high heat; boil 5 minutes. Add shrimp; return to boiling. Cook 3 to 5 minutes or till shrimp turn pink. Drain; discard cloves and bay leaf. Serve shrimp hot with melted butter or cold with cocktail sauce.
