Beer can be substituted for seltzer water, but beer adds flavor, so you’ll want to add additional seasonings and additives. Also, don’t skimp on butter. Otherwise, the bread will be flavorless.
Garlic powder, herbs such as dried basil or parsley, and/or seasonings such as parmesan or cheddar cheese can be added for flavor.
Mix until the dough is moist. Do not overmix. The bread will harden.
