Beer Bread

Tap the keg and pull out the mixing bowl—it’s baking time!

Lager your loaves, beer your brioche, pale ale your pretzels, dunkel your dough…just pour a pint to bake something extra special. The brew will add a unique depth of flavor to baked goods from bread to biscuits. Here are 75 fun recipes that use a variety of beers—golden ales to Belgian blondes, chocolate porters to juicy IPAs—and take baking to the next luscious level:

Cream Ale Irish Soda Bread
Honey Whole Wheat Blonde Bread
Cheese and Herb
Pale Ale Bread


Each recipe includes multiple suggestions for beers, with information on how different types will taste once baked. It’s also not all about the yeast; in addition to loaves and rolls that need to rise, there are easy quick breads, muffins, biscuits, and scones. Featuring beautiful photography, Beer Bread is the must-have book for anyone who “kneads” beer to live.
