"This bread is so good when served warm from the oven with lashing of butter and is perfect served with soup. The type of beer you use will have an outcome on the taste if the bread, so use a beer you usually drink or even find a nice craft fruity beer to change the flavor. You can also use nuts, grains or seed to top the loaf, and even cheese works well, but I always add the cheese half way through baking."

Step by Step Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 180°C & grease or line a loaf tin.
Step 2
In a bowl, sift in the flour and then mix in the beer and sugar; mix combined and batter is smooth. Do not overmix!
Step 3
Pour mixture into the greased tin and drizzle over the melted butter on top of the beer bread mixture.
Step 4
Place bread into the oven and bake for approximately 40-50 minutes or until bread is golden brown on top.
Step 5
Note. If you like a softer top on the bread you can choose to mix the butter through the mix instead of on top, drizzling the butter over the bread seems to give a crustier top to the bread.
