Tear off 2 large sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil and lay them shiny-side down. Place a rack of spare ribs on each sheet, meaty-side up.

Tear off 2 more sheets of foil and place them on top of the spare ribs, shiny-side up. Begin tightly folding the edges of the foil together to create a sealed packet.

Just before sealing completely, divide beer mixture evenly into each packet.

Complete the seal. Place the packets side-by-side on an 11×14-inch baking sheet.

Bake ribs in the preheated oven until the ribs are very tender, 3 1/2 to 4 hours.

Carefully open each packet and drain drippings into a saucepan. You may only need the drippings from one packet.

Place ribs on a foil-lined baking sheet and set aside.

Heat the saucepan over medium-high and simmer drippings until the sauce begins to thicken, about 5 minutes.

Brush the thickened sauce over ribs.

Preheat the broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Return ribs to the oven and broil until the sauce is lightly caramelized, 5 to 7 minutes.
