3 cup (24 fl oz/708 ml) heavy whipping cream, divided
16 Italian ladyfinger cookies (savoiardi), halved crosswise

In a separate bowl, beat the remaining cup (8 fl oz/237 ml) of whipping cream to stiff peaks.

In 4 tulip glasses, begin to assemble the tiramisu with ¼ cup (2 fl oz/59 ml) of the pumpkin mousse in the bottom of each glass. For each glass, dip 4 ladyfinger halves in the beer and quickly place on the mousse, top with a thin layer of chocolate. Repeat the layers, ending with the chocolate. Top with the whipped cream and garnish with a little of the chocolate. Allow to set in the refrigerator for 1 hour before serving.
