RECIPE BACKSTORY
I just recently had a potluck al' fresco style at my house a weekend ago. It was so much fun! I decided to make one of my old stand bys, since I made ribs again. Beer Bread! My mother use to make it all the time, when I was a kid and I loved loved it when it would come out of the oven dripping in butter and all hot! As an adult, I have added my little love to the beer bread by using dark beer- my mother would always use a light beer. I LOVE to use, Guiness with my recipe. It gives a rich flavor!
I personally love it with butter, but at the party friends were using a nice beer mustard and even goat cheese. It was amazing.
So I share.

Just made this last night, but I did just the basic template recipe for beer bread (12 floz of beer to 3 C self-rising flour). Worked great, roommates loved it. Some other interesting things to add, depending on your audience: couple tablespoons sugar - smooths a little garlic powder (I use 2 tablespoons) - it's garlic, always great.Couple dashes of salt - sometimes yes, sometimes no - to taste grated extra sharp cheddar (tillamook!) - about 1/2 cup If you're adding any of the dry-ingredients I usually go lighter on the flour, add the "extras" and then top off with more flour until you get the correct consistancy. Also - I use melted butter poured on top before baking and 20-min before done.
