Prep: 20 mins | Cook: 2 hours 15 mins

1. Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook all peppers, and onion, and garlic in hot oil until softened, about 5 minutes.
2. While peppers are cooking, brown the ground turkey in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, bouillon cubes, and beer to the pan; continue to cook for a few minutes, making sure to scrape up any turkey stuck to the bottom of the pan.
3. Add turkey mixture to onions in the large soup pot. Stir in the tomatoes (including paste) and wine, Season with remaining ingredients, except beans, sour cream, and cilantro.
4. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium low. Cover and simmer for 90 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add kidney beans and return to a boil, then simmer for another 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
5. Remove from heat. When chili has cooled slightly, in a small bowl, whisk the sour cream, cilantro, and 1/2 teaspoon cumin together until smooth. Serve chili with sour cream topping on each bowl.
