Remove from heat and add chocolate; stir with whisk until melted and smooth. Stir in 2 tablespoons beer.
Pour into bowl; cover and refrigerate about 1 to 2 hours or until spreading consistency.
Spread about 2 teaspoons frosting on each cookie; top each with 1 pretzel twist, pressing in gently. Store loosely covered.
