Welcome to Flyertalk! You will not be able to carry beer through security in Chicago -- it must be in your checked bag unless it happens to be in tiny 3 oz bottles, which I don't think is a thing. Clear immigration and customs, then put it in a bag to check. As a note, you will have to go through TSA screening before your next flight regardless of which terminal you're leaving from. All international flights -- except those that have pre-cleared -- land at Terminal 5. Once you clear immigration and customs, you'll be dumped into the public part of the terminal. There's no option to remain inside security to transit to your connecting flight.
