Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 12 ounces beer (room temperature)
- 1/4 cup melted butter
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
- Pour in the beer and stir until just combined; do not overmix.
- Pour the batter into a greased 9×5-inch loaf pan.
- Bake for 35 minutes.
- Remove bread from oven and immediately brush the top with melted butter.

Notes
Use a lager or ale for best flavor. Avoid overmixing the batter to keep the bread light and fluffy. Brushing with butter after baking adds a rich, golden crust.
