Beer bread

I splurged on a Shiner Family Reunion this weekend.  I haven't tried the Haymaker yet and didn't want to miss it.  I usually like all of the beers in the Family Reunion except the Black, which is just too tart. 

But that's OK, because the world has beer bread.

This batch was experimental:

Preheat oven to 375.  Butter a loaf pan.

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup whole-wheat flour
1/2 cup cornmeal
1/8 cup sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder

sift together twice.  Mix in but don't overwork:

1/4 cup butter, melted
12 ounces of beer

(I didn't add, but thought it could have used, a little salt.)

Bake 60 minutes, until browned.
