Submitted by half yank

"I found this online recently, but don't remember where, so the credit for this simple,lovely textured, and delicious bread goes to someone else. It was my husbands first attempt at breadmaking (of any kind) and it turned out so fabulous!It's a simple basic bread that smells and tastes delightful. We served it with a homemade Garlic butter spread. My husband set the opened beer out the night before to go flat.Time is approximate."

Delicious bread! I used Recipe #78816 for my starter. I just used the dough cycle on my bread machine and let rise in a glass baking dish until doubled in size. Baked at 350' for 25 minutes, just until it turned lightly brown. Thanks for sharing the recipe :)
