Poached Pears with Raspberry Chocolate Sauce

Originally, pears were only poached in wine and sugar, but these days you can get really creative with what you use. Since beer is our preferred beverage of choice, we used a black lager. The chocolatey flavor of the black lager goes perfectly with raspberry.
