Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prepare a 9"x5" bread pan by greasing with 1 tablespoon butter. Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine flour and sugar with a whisk. Make a well in the center.
Add full beer into the well. Stir the mixture with a spoon until combined.
Pour mixture into the prepared bread pan. Drizzle with the remaining butter. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until browned on top and loaf thumps when you tap the top or a toothpick comes out clean.
Remove to a wire rack and allow to cool for 5 minutes. Remove from pan and allow to cool completely on the wire rack. The bread will cut best when it is not hot.
Enjoy!

You can substitute all-purpose flour in this beer bread recipe with a few adjustments. If you plan to use all-purpose flour, you’ll need to use 3 cups of all-purpose flour and add 1 tablespoon of baking soda and 3/4 teaspoon salt.
If you are using unsalted butter, just add 1/4 teaspoon salt to the flour and sugar.
If you are sensitive to beer you can substitute non-alcoholic beer, lemon-lime soda, or ginger ale. I HIGHLY recommend using the beer though. It gives it an incredible flavor that you will miss out on using the substitutions.
Store loaves in a sealed plastic bag or airtight container. It should stay fresh for a few days at room temperature.
You can also freeze it for later. For best results, slice it first, then place a piece of parchment paper between each slice. This way, you can thaw just what you need. Keep it all in a freezer-safe plastic bag for up to 6 months.
