I followed recipe exactly except i didnt have any German beer, so i used Guinness. Possibly too strong for some folks, but i liked it. Next time I will use a good German beer, cook it in the crock pot, and thicken the gravy with some crushed ginger snaps rather than corn starch. It does remind me a little of sauerbraten, but way less work. A little crushed gingersnaps into gravy should make it a bit more similar. I served with boiled potatoes, baby carrots, red cabbage, home baked bread, and homemade apple sauce. Reminded my husband of his years based in Germany while in the Army.
