I guessed and baked it at 375° for 45 min and it turned out great. Might not use such a dark beer next time, but everyone liked it- hot and cold!
Terri-
I am SO sorry to have skipped that important detail when I first wrote up the recipe. You guessed well, that was the correct temp and everything!
Glad you liked it.
Warmly,

first try turned out a bit much like soda bread, I did'nt stir it a whole lot after adding the beer, I guess I'm used to pie crust or scone dough, you don't work them over much. The second bactch I used self-rising flour and stirred it a bunch, also used a lighter(ie less malty) beer we'll see how it comes out....
About
This simple, crusty bread is a winner! It is light and airy inside, and yet the crust is super crunchy. Perfect for soup night, or sliced for bruchetta. A fabulous recipe that deserves a place in your recipe box.
