This bread is excellent, just as written. I think the reason there was a small percentage of people who didn't like it is that those are the same people who don't like whole wheat bread, period. It is something that one has to get used to if you grew up with white store bought super soft and sweet mush bread. This is so much better for you. I like to grind my own wheat (I get teased) so my whole wheat flour is very fresh. I like the idea of premixing this and wrapping up with a beer for Christmas gifts. What a great idea, I am definitely going to do that this year.

For years I've been buying a home party beer bread, but always hated the outrageous price. NO MORE!! This one blows theirs away! I followed the recipe exactly as written and used a Corona beer. MMMMM! I'll definitely be making this again soon! Thanks for a great recipe!

It was very dry and crumbly, and not in a good way. Texture was off somehow. It didn't do for us, thanks though!

I really like this recipe, it's so easy for such good results. But I took some of the advice offered by other user: a cup of cheese mixed in with the bread (I didn't take anything out, the first time I made it it seemed a little wet), two tablespoons butter on top (I added a little salt) as well as a coating of cheddar cheese on top of the bread with about twenty minutes to cook (I also added another two tablespoons of butter). It was delicious, and the crust I added (simply cheddar cheese, butter, salt) was perhaps my favorite part. Great recipe, and easy to tweak to the way you like it.

I followed the recipe exactly as stated. The only thing I will do different next time is double the recipe. My family of six wanted more. :)

My favorite beer to make with this bread is Stella. Granted, I've only attempted to make it with Stella, and Shock Top. I add 1 tsp of baking soda to keep it fluffy, and a bit of pepper for fragrance. It makes some bomb dinner rolls. :D

Perfect every time! I recommend checking the loaf partway through cooking, because mine was done a bit sooner than the recipe said. It's a perfect, hearty bread to have accompany soups and salads. I'm a big fan!

Ridiculously good! I made mine with an Oktoberfest beer and put a tbsp of butter on top before baking. Insanely delicious for being so simple. Almost a cornbread taste somehow.
