This is a super easy recipe I received at my bridal shower over 17 years ago. Even those whose lips would never touch liquor gobble up this beer bread!

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a medium sized baking pan, or loaf pan.
- 2. Combine flour and sugar. Add beer, and 3 tablespoons of the melted butter. Stir until well blended. The batter will be very thick and sticky. Pour into the greased baking pan.
- 3. Bake for about 30 minutes; remove from oven and pour remainder of melted butter all over the top of the bread. Return to the oven, and bake for approximately 20 more minutes until beautifully brown.
- 4. Cool only slightly (maybe 3-5 minutes)! Cut into squares, or slice (if you made in a loaf pan, slice thick slices), and serve warm! Eat this with even more butter, for a cardiovascular feast of doom... But what a way to go! So delicious!
BEER BREAD
Per Google.com, the #1 recipe for Beer Bread in the world! There are a few recipes for beer bread out there, but none as simple (and tasty!) as this one. You can even mix it in the baking pan for easy cleanup. This is sensational when served with soups or just as a snack, but don't expect it to be around very long when your family gets a taste of it! Be sure to use a sheet pan on the shelf below the pan to catch any excess butter that may drip during cooking.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Mix dry ingredients and beer.
- Pour into a greased loaf pan.
- Pour melted butter over mixture.
- Bake 1 hour, remove from pan and cool for at least 15 minutes.
- UPDATED NOTES: This recipe makes a very hearty bread with a crunchy, buttery crust. If you prefer a softer crust (like a traditional bread) mix the butter into the batter instead of pouring it over the top.
- Sifting flour for bread recipes is a must-do. Most people just scoop the 1 cup measure in the flour canister and level it off. That compacts the flour and will turn your bread into a "hard biscuit" as some have described. That's because they aren't sifting their flour! If you do not have a sifter, use a spoon to spoon the flour into the 1 cup measure. Try it once the "correct" way and you will see an amazing difference in the end product.
- I have had many email from you kind folks about using non-alcoholic beverages instead of beer. That is fine to do but I highly recommend adding a packet of Dry Active Yeast or 2 teaspoons of Bread (Machine) Yeast so that you get a proper rise.
- The final result should be a thick, hearty and very tasteful bread, NOT A BRICK! ;).
- Thank you all for the incredibly nice comments and those of you who left a bad review - learn to sift sift SIFT! You will be amazed at the results you get.
