Place the stand with the chicken on the center of the grill and close the top of the grill. Cook over medium heat until the internal temperature of the thickest part of the thigh reads 170°F (approx. 1 hour 15 minutes).

Carefully remove the chicken from the beer stand using tongs and a heat-safe cutting board. Cover the chicken with foil and let rest for 10 minutes before carving. Discard remaining beer in the stand once it cools.
