We found this recipe and tweaked the ingredients a bit to come up with a nicely sweetened beer bread with a great crunchy top. The secret to our success was using a honey beer (or you can use a sweetened pop such as 7Up, too, just don't use a diet pop, as the flavor will not be the same). Read more This is good on its own, or served in chunks alongside dips or spreads - the sweetness works well with the salty dips. The bread was excellent warm from the oven and slathered in butter!

Nothing tastes better to me than a good beer batter bread, Krum! This one will be more wonderful because of the sweetness of those lovely honey beers. Thanks for posting this for all of us but most especially for me! ^5, of course!
