Step 1
Pour beer into a small saucepan and simmer over medium heat until reduced to 3 tablespoons, ~4 minutes. Smell it—it'll get darker and more concentrated.
Step 2
Add chocolate to the hot beer off heat and let sit 1 minute, then stir until smooth and glossy.
Step 3
Pour the chocolate mixture into a clean bowl and cool for 2 minutes.
Step 4
Whip cream, sugar, vanilla, and salt in a separate bowl until soft peaks form, ~2 minutes.
Step 5
Fold chocolate into whipped cream gently with a spatula until just combined—no streaks.
Step 6
Divide between serving glasses or bowls. Top with cocoa powder or a tiny pinch of fleur de sel if you have it. Serve cold.
