Add the turkey, oregano, and chili powder, and sauté until the turkey is browned, about 5 minutes. Add the beer and cook until the beer is reduced by half.

Add the tomatoes, chipotle chilies and adobo sauce, beans, salt and pepper. Bring the chili to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 30 to 40 minutes.
