Can I rescue this shop-bought beer?

Yesterday, I decided to buy some beer that I hadn't tried before. One of the two packs I bought was Sweetheart Stout, made by Tennents.

It's only 2%, but I had enjoyed Mackeson before so I figured this would be a similar experience. I was wrong.

As the name suggests, the beer is intolerably sweet and — unlike some bad lager I bought a few years back — I can't just chug it and I don't want to give it away or dispose of it. Instead, I was thinking I might be able to transform it into something better.

A glühbier might be a good fit for the drink, but I have never made one of these before. It might also work well in a gravy for something gamey, or a sauce of my own invention; but that's just a stab in the dark.

Does anyone have any advice?
