Beer Bread

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 Tablespoon baking powder
1 ½ teaspoons salt
4 Tablespoons sugar
1-12oz can or bottle of  any light beer.
4 tablesppons salted butter


Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
First be sure to lightly grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Sift together well with fork. Pour in the beer, stir until a stiff like batter begins to form, but don’t over mix. Otherwise this will cause your bread texture to become tough. Best to mix the batter with your bare hands. Scrape dough into the prepared loaf pan. Yes, it will be pretty gooey and sticky.
Melt the butter and brush it across top the of dough.
This will make a an extra golden crusty top!
Bake your bread for about 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the loaf comes out clean.
Depending on your choice of beer, may change the length of baking time for your bread. The lighter your beer, the better. Nothing fancy is needed here, only to drink!
Once your bread is complete, cool on a wire rack, adn slab on a bit of butter to each slice.
Enjoy!
