Ingredients
- 1 Bottle Bell's Amber Ale
- 3 cups flour
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1 Tbsp. baking powder
- 2 Tbsp. sugar
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. black pepper
- 12 oz. shredded Gouda

In the Kitchen
- In a large bowl, sift flour, salt and baking powder together. Add sugar and black pepper and stir until blended.
- Add minced garlic and combine thoroughly with dry mixture. Fold in 8 oz. of grated Gouda to the mixture.
- Add Bell's Amber Ale to the mixture, using either a wooden spoon or in a mixer with a dough hook on slow. Transfer dough into a nonstick or lined loaf pan, cover with a damp cloth and let rest for 25 minutes.
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. After resting, liberally brush on the melted butter and sprinkle with the remaining Gouda.
