Made in machine as loaf... Needs something maybe more salt. Tastes bland to me.

These rolls came out just right. Often, even though I use the correct measurements making bread/rolls etc, I find the dough is too sticky, but this dough was very easy to handle. My other half really enjoyed them. I personally prefer lighter rolls, but I made these because I had some leftover Guinness to use up. I hate to waste anything. :)

I was skeptical because I hate beer and I can normally taste it in about everything I make with beer. Some friends had come over and left beer behind and I didn't want to waste it so this was one of the recipes I tried. Very good. I really liked it. Would never have guessed that this was made with beer had I not made them. Didn't change a thing.

These turned out great! We don't drink alcohol, but I had another recipe that called for a can of beer...the only single beer I could find at the store was a 24oz, so I ended up with half of that left. I'm SO glad I had some leftover because I got make these rolls! Everyone loved them!

Wow!! Easy, fluffy and great! I used 12 oz Labatt Blue Light Lime (on hand) and added extra 1/4 c. flour and used agave nectar instead of honey since I'm a vegan. Didn't wait for beer to go flat, put all ingredients in my bread machine on dough setting. Took it out after it was mixed and had risen. Left it out for about an hour, then made it into snail shaped rolls, left them uncovered on the counter and went out for 2 1/2 hours and then came back and popped the cookie sheet in the oven - they were still awesome! Yeasty, fluffy and slightly crusty on the top. Only thing I would change would be 1/2 tsp of salt instead of 1/4. Easy and wonderful even with all of my deliberate and accidental alterations.

i used a full bottle of beer, and it still wasn't enough for 4 cups of flour. i added about 1/4 more liquid, and ended up with a very nice dough. the recipe also needs more salt to bring out the bread's flavor.

These turned out perfectly! And it was my first time using my bread machine to make dough, so I wasn't sure if I was doing anything wrong. I used MGD, for that's all I had. I can see where this would have been better with a darker beer. But since we were going for more of a plain roll, it was perfect. I melted the butter with a clove of chopped garlic and spread on top of rolls before baking, then sprinkled rosemary and sea salt when they were done. Delicious!

I used the full 12 oz. of beer and used half all-purpose flour and half whole wheat flour. Thanks for sharing!

Easy & yummy, my two favorite things....I only have bud light in my house, and I only had one tablespoon of honey left. I will definately make these again (even though my sisters recipe for rolls is better than this one...still great)

There were absolutely delicious! If I could give it 100 stars, I would. I used light beef and left out the cinnamon since I was serving the rolls with beef stew. I did use 12 oz. beer and had to add at least 1/4 cup more flour. I also did not brush the tops with butter due to diet issues.
