Stir in the cumin, chili powder, crushed red pepper flakes, salt and pepper and saute another minute or two.

Add the tomatoes, beer and one can of the tomato juice, bring up to the boil and gently simmer for about 15 minutes. Taste at this point and if the mixture seems to acidic, stir in some of the brown sugar.
