The greatest success in the World Cup was a 14th place in 2002 in Östersund and a second place with the relay in Antholz.
On May 19, 2009, Beer sustained serious injuries during bike training with teammate Anne Preussler when she fell headlong into the ditch on a wet and slippery road after braking. She was admitted to the hospital with a splintered cervical vertebra, a broken thoracic vertebra, and a contusion on the carotid artery. According to trainer Frank Püschel, she was “ still very lucky. [...] It looked bad. We are glad that she is still alive and that she doesn't have to sit in a wheelchair. “After a severe fracture of the fibula, which she suffered from Frank Luck's farewell race in 2004 , she had to take a long break. In 2006 she was also absent for a few weeks after an operation due to cartilage damage to the ankle. After seven weeks of rehabilitation , she started training again in September 2009 and took part in the first qualifying race for the IBU Cup in Obertilliach at the beginning of December .
