beer bread ~ Susie

[Guest guest]

This sounds so good! i am going to make this either tonight

or tomorrow. i just have a few questions.

Do you think a medium-dark beer would work well?

What was is in the flavor of Heineken that you suspect made

the bread have a funky flavor quality; i want to avoid that.

One of my favorite restaurant-pub hang-outs here in town

serve a wonderful ale bread. Their recipe seems to have a

slight citrus note, so i am thinking they probably use a bit

of grated orange peel to the recipe.... might try that when i

make this bread. Will probably use Fat Tire Amber Ale...

Thanks for sharing the recipe!

hi pt,

 

a medium amber ale would be perfect.

the skunky taste of heineken really came through in

the bread and i didn't care for it much (i don't

really like heineken anyway). oh, i think the orange

zest would be wonderful because the bread is kinda

sweet. let me know how it turns out and if y'all like

it.

Thanks Susie. i will definitely let you know how it turns out.

This pub always serves the ale bread with their dinners, but

i also think it is sweet like a dessert quick bread, so i save

the bread and bring it home for breakfast.

Now i have to go buy more beer! i drank my last bottle last

night watching the olympics! *lol*
