The obvious is a stew or beer marinade... But what about using the old google to find a beer reduction type sauce?
You could make a decomposed stew, as in a beer reduction sauce, to go with a nice piece of steak, potato gratin and fresh veg or fresh salad with a beer infused dressing?

I'd be doing slow cooked lamb shanks. Fine diced carrots and onions, tin of peeled tomatoes (diced if available), your stout, pepper and herb/spices of your choice. Serve with hot mashed potatoes and minted peas.

Drink all three.
Cut fresh calamari into rings, dust with a salt, pepper and cornflour mixture and deep fry.
Make a salad ( think bean shoots, pine nuts julienne capsicum, julienne snow peas )with a sweetened vinagerette that is loaded quite heavily with fresh mint.
Throw a side serve of japanese mayo in and a glass of chardonnay.

A dash of fish sauce in the dressing makes it magical.

thanks guys went a little with what grot said - but using beef brisket - i'll serve with a creamy mash and pickled onion and cucumber relish (home made of course)

once again thanks guys
and yesseaquebrew - more stout needs to be bought - preferably brewed but there is not enough hours in the day

Drink it right, drink it cold and never drink it with a pineapple on your head.
