This bread is awesome! I made it just as the recipe instructed, except using half the butter. I used Sam Adams Pale Ale. Next time I make this bread, I will pat it out and cut into biscuits. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

I made this last night and my husband commented that it’s not good, it’s AWESOME! I can’t wait to try it tonight. I used fresh jalapenos instead of pickled and used a little less butter.

This was amazingly good. i made it for some friends and we just couldn’t stop eating it. I’ve made other beer breads before, and they generally ended up a little too beer-y. Though the beer flavor was still present, it was more understated, went well with the cheese and jalapenos. I used about 1/2 cup jalapenos instead, came out perfect.

4 mitts doesn’t do this justice…it’s fabulous! I added a little more jalapenos than it called for, and my husband was very impressed. We had it with leftover turkey soup and WOW! You will not be disappointed.

Excellent recipe and very easy to prepare. As others have mentioned, it has a crunchy and buttery crust. The two things I would change are as follows: (1) Use an amber beer instead of a pale ale; I am not a big fan of the bitterness from the pale ale, (2) Use a fresh jalapeño instead of pickled jalapeño. Overall, a wonderfully tasty recipe that I will make again and again.

This bread was pretty delicious…not crazy about the addition on the sugar, though. maybe I should’ve used a different kind of beer?Other than the slight sweetness I wasn’t crazy about, it was so good!

I have made this both with and without the jalapenos, and it’s always delicious.
