What can I substitute for beer in corned beef?
Chef's answer
Substitution Option: If you feel strongly about not using beer you can substitute water or chicken stock (beef stock is very strong tasting and I think will affect the end flavor of the brisket).

Light corn syrup would be the best flavor match, but dark corn syrup will work, too. Other options to try include maple syrup or molasses (not blackstrap). These substitutes can replace honey measure for measure. They may change the flavor of your recipe slightly, but that could turn out to be a good thing.
