Beer is found to the southeast of the Imbrium M. between the craters Timocharis and Archimedes, close to Feuille' (9.5 km). To the South east ofi Beer a dome is found whose dimensions are comparable to the crater (10 km), The dome has a semispherical shape and it seems very low with a tiny shadow , I have not found any summit craterlet, perhaps also because of the seeing being not very good
