Interesting. Was hoping for some guidance on what pale ale to use, but opted for a Red Hook Audible Ale we had in the fridge. It's decently balanced and i can taste each and every one of the ingredients. I was worried the beer would over power the other ingredients, but it blended well. Don't know if I'd go out of my way to make it again, but it was enjoyable.
