Chop shallots, tomato, and jalapenos for beans.
Heat a small pot over medium heat.
Add the butter and the vegetables you just chopped and cook until they start to break down.
Add the beans, beer and lime juice and stir well.
Cover and cook on medium-low for about 20 minutes; when finished, set aside to cool.
While beans are cooking, heat skillet on medium-high heat.
Remove chorizo from casing and add to skillet; cook until browned, then remove from heat and let cool.
