Ingredients

* 3 cups flour (sifted)
* 3 teaspoons baking powder (omit if using Self-Rising Flour)
* 1 teaspoon salt (omit if using Self-Rising Flour)
* 1/4 cup sugar

* 1 (12 ounce) can beer
* 1/2 cup melted butter (1/4 cup will do just fine)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Mix dry ingredients and beer.
3. Pour into a greased loaf pan.
4. Pour melted butter over mixture.
5. Bake 1 hour, remove from pan and cool for at least 15 minutes.
6. UPDATED NOTES: Sifting flour for bread recipes is a must-do. Most people just scoop the 1 cup measure in the flour canister and level it off. That compacts the flour and will turn your bread into a "hard biscuit" as some have described. That's because they aren't sifting their flour! If you do not have a sifter, use a spoon to spoon the flour into the 1 cup measure. Try it once the "correct" way and you will see an amazing difference in the end product.
