My wife and I are both retired an 71 years old. Whenever I walk into the room, she's watching you. She says you make her calm and are interesting. She's learning a lot too.
My father was a German trained baker and he took as much time as you do to make beer bread. After I made it, the smell and taste reminded me of my childhood. Thank you!
Perfect bread to make right before a snowstorm. I think a nice bowl of beef barley soup would compliment that bread nicely.
The trick is in the gentle kneading. Continuous gentle kneading makes a magnificent dough. I now know how I've gone wrong in the past. TY.
This is a BEAUTIFUL loaf of bread, Kevin. You really are a master bread baker.
I’ve been baking for over 40 years and I honestly have never seen a homemade loaf look as good as yours. I can’t believe I actually opened my mouth when you brought it to the camera. Subscribed. Just a joy to watch
Just made this bread w my kids! We had a great time and it turned out amazing. We don’t have a Dutch oven, but we do have two bread pans and we created our own. It worked just as well! Thanks again!
I agree with you, Kevin. I don't believe the beer bread recipes mostly presenting a crumbling crumb texture or the loose crumbs for a crust are breads at all. They're usually bogged down by a bunch of sugar and cheese, which I never enjoyed in the recipes I've tried in the past.
Hi Kevin, I’ve done my pre-storm shopping so I’ll have to wait for a couple of days (need the beer) to make this bread, which looks wonderful. And please please please never think watching extended techniques such as kneading or rolling out pie crust will cause folks to turn off your videos. You have great recipes but I believe watching the process of making said recipes is absolutely critical, especially for me with kneading dough. You give me the confidence to try again and it’s been a long time! Know you are appreciated!
I like watching you knead bread and talking!
I’m so happy to see an easy bread recipe although a lot of love and work is put into it. I can’t wait to try this 😄
That loooks divine, I can’t wait to try it!
Kevin, your videos always make me happy. Thank you for sharing your life!
Once again you’ve given he best instructions on kneading bread. Thank you Kevin!!!!!!
I love every video I have seen, thank you for your patience and directions, I always feel, "I can do that" and that's all because of you
We are watching because you are so good at this. I love that you make each step clear, in control and so doable.
I’m going to make this today. You make all your recipes seem so easy. Love watching all your videos.
It looks deliciously good.
Looks amazing
My mom used to make this in the 70's. Wonderful stuff.
I can’t wait to make this bread. Thanks so much. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤗🙌
Oh, that looks so good.
Kevin!!!!! My mother used to make this ! Bless you ! Now I have a recipe of my own
It's so beautiful to see how much the dough can change with just a little time and gentle kneading by hand. Gives the flour time to actually absorb the liquid, and u can feel the difference. I'm an old lady who just recently began my bread making journey, and I absolutely luv it. I've made barm bread. You could taste the beer some, but it was such a delicious flavor, and I never ever liked beer. Great video.
This bread was absolutely awesome 🤩 Great recipe Kevin!
Exactly what I was looking for thank you! Your absolutely right about the other beer bread recipes on here.
Great video👌
looks great. love the tactile method.
Looks and sounds fantastic! I'm going to make some today to go with the beef stew.
Thanks Kevin!
Kevin, we love this recipe too. Bread is so awesome when patience is involved. Thanks so much again. We appreciate being invited into your home as well.

Looks delish, Kevin! Never baked bread in a Dutch Oven before so this will be an additional adventure! Thank you taking the time to share / show kneading technique - will report back when I try it:-)
Wonderful creation Kevin will certainly have to make have to try this one too👌🇿🇦
It was so relaxing watching you knead the dough😊 can't wait to make this bread looks very delicious 😋
I love your sense of humor you always make me laugh! Your recipes are the best. I made the orange rolls today they were delicious! I’m going to bake this beer bread tomorrow. Thanks for all the great content all your hard work is appreciated. Yes! That is an awesome loaf of beer bread.
I'm so excited to try your beer bread recipe
Thank you for sharing 🎉
Hi Kevin I am going to make this at the weekend. Agree about kneading. Many thanks.
Thank you for explaining the reason for the each step. Most don't tell you why you need to do these things.
my mouth is watering
Oh my gosh. We sure are watching your videos and love every one ...thank you ❤️ you work so hard and do so much and run a perfectly charming household in your exquisite home...would love to come and visit you and enjoy a cup of tea in your piano room.!!
Thank you so much! Making this recipe for a friend today.
Really enjoying your food! And videos!
Just made it! I've always been soooo afraid of yeast breads. I made this along with you on this video, step by step, and it came out perfect! Thank you! Love you! Gina from Northern California!
I'm so glad!!!
A beautiful loaf Kevin, I'll give this one a go. Thank you for a lovely recipe. Can't wait to try it. PS thanks for the chat too. I feel I'm in your kitchen having a cuppa and watching you cook x 🍞
I had a Kevin Lee Jacobs weekend…cooked a chicken in the Instapot, made a chicken pie, made bone broth, and beer bread! Thank you for the recipes!
I'm so glad!!!
Greetings from Australia, Kevin. I tried this recipe today using beer that my son bought me that, in all honesty, I would never drink. I didn't use a dutch oven, but opted instead to go for the main oven with a tray of water at the bottom to give the bread some crispness. It worked well too, so thanks Kevin. The aroma in the kitchen was amazing. Your focus on kneading is the secret to this, I think... congratulations on another success!
Just to let you know, I watch all your videos. I make the recipes I can eat and have loved them all. I love when you cook and garden. I also love when you show your pets, house, and when you play the piano.
Yummmm! The loaves look amazing. I bet they tasted great and your kitchen smelled wonderful. I was more on top of my bread-making during the height of the pandemic but have since fallen off the wagon. I think I need to hop back on the bread bus! Thank you for the detailed and thoughtful tutorials!
Hello from Eketahuna NZ.
I made your beer bread yesterday and its lovely. I loved the kneading process. Found it relaxing. Thank you for sharing your recipe 😊
Kevin thank you I make your basic bread every week we no longer buy bread thx to you and your bread. We are in Collingwood Ont 🇨🇦and expecting 20-49 centimetres of snow tonight so tomorrow it we’ll be a soup and bread day.
I was looking for a beer bread recipe and stumbled on your channel. I won't be leaving your channel or looking anywhere else. It's fantastic tasting, easy to make and extremely well presented in your teaching. Thank you.
Watching from South Africa your bread looks delicious thank you
Kevin, I enjoyed how you make bread and how you teach how to make it. You go straight to the point to explain how to make it. Looks great! Thanks, Tony from Merrill, Wisconsin
Hi Tony - I'm glad the video was helpful to you. Hope you enjoy the bread!
Kevin - I'm very (k)needy too. Kidding! Thanks for sharing
Kevin, I love you!! You are a joy!!!😄
Ohmygosh it is such a pleasure to join you in watching all your videos and this one was so therapeutic to watch the transformation of dough making. I had a mostly fail at making a pandemic gf sourdough bread last year. I've made plenty of cake like quick breads. My Mom used to take one of my Dad's Schlitz cans and make beer bread. It was very doughy and moist but we liked it. Probably smothered in the ubiquitous margarine of the time circa 1976.
Thankyou for showing the time sequence of the dough transforming! I have a creuset dutch oven and always wondered if the top handle of the lid was safe for the oven temps.
This recipe is really gorgeous. What a beautiful creation! 💛🧡❤️
Hi Kevin beer bread looks amazing .
My favorite food. 😊
I have just give a try to your recipe:absolutly delicious! A very pretty surprise...It's not the first time that I cook bread....Thank you very much.💜
Great Recipe! Turned out great and I added rosemary and thyme to one loaf, and garlic and parmesan to another.. LOVE it ! Thank you for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it -- I like your additions!
you crack me up kevin--i love saintly bread!! :)
Just made this in a bread machine. Came out great. Very soft. Definitely can taste the ale. Used the recipe exactly except for salt; used only 1 tsp salt.
Kevin! Perfect! I saw you make your beer bread recipe on a recent video. I went to this one for further instruction. I’m going to try this! I am considering making sourdough starter as well now I’m retired. I love healthy bread! Fantastic video!
Blessings,
Allison 🍁
I’m getting tired just watching you. Enjoy your videos. Your a delight
Love you videos and have tryed I am watching from Canada 🇨🇦
Making it right now! Fingers crossed!
I made this today and it was delicious!
Hi Debbie - Too few people have tried this great bread. I'm glad that you did -- and that you liked it!
I'll have to try this ive been trying lots of breads over last few months but I do know I need more practice kneeding correctly
Nice video!
I've seen a few videos where they don't really knead the dough, just folding it in the bowl. I'm new to bread making and I too enjoy the kneading, wasn't sure how that was different.
Thank you again
Thanks again Kevin....my husband will soon be missing a beer!
Wonderful! Can’t wait to try this. Kevin, re: kneading bread. Back when I lived up North I baked bread. At the time I taught elementary music, and while I loved it and the kids, face it - not every day is a delight! (Especially after a couple of weeks of -40 indoor recesses!) I found that going home and kneading bread was the BEST therapy for getting your frustrations out. Just SLAM that dough on the counter! But then I’d have four loaves of bread! So the next day I’d take the 3 extra loaves to the staff room, where they were happily devoured. In fact, I started to suspect that the teachers would get their classes wound up before coming in to my room, just so they’d get to have fresh bread the next day! LOL
What a great story! And yes, the act of kneading yeast dough by hand does wonders for reducing stress. Hope you enjoy this Rustic Beer Bread!
I am so happy to see you using Saranac beer. I live practically next door to the brewery! 🤪🥴
I am making your bread today with our cousins homemade beer!
This should be faboooo! ❤
Great job, 'Pale Ale' spot on.
Pale Ale = Hoppy Taste
Malt Beer = Malt Taste
Stout Beer = Bold Taste.
Chocolate Stout = ?
Recipe sounds easy and bread looks great. Will try the recipe with two slight variations; whole wheat flour and lager beer which is the preferred type of beer here in Guatemala.
Hi Kevin the bread looks amazing!! Thank you for sharing your recipe, I enjoy your videos, I would n did watch it to the end, not only this video but each and everyone of them 💜💜
Thank you so much, Farida!
Good morning Kevin from our farm in New Hampshire. Snow on its way! Our kitchen wood stove, Matilda, is blazing away! She may get up to temp to bake this rustic bread. Your recipe is great! And YES, we are watching :-) I wonder if I can use hard cider. Will check if I have any beer. I too, cook with beer for my Yankee pot roast. Thank you for that excellent demonstration of bread kneading. Like that you are a "bread slammer" ! Yes, it is therapudic. My grandmother gifted cooking and baking on to me. Zen & the Art of Bread Baking and lighting the Aladdin lamp....
Thanks so much Kev! ~ Diane
yummy
Wow despite my natural ineptitude, it still came out good. Thank you, Kevin.
Yay, Emily!
Such a gift we all have in Kevin Lee Jacobs! Will make. Will report!
Oh my goodness Kevin, this looks fabulous and would pair well with a soup or stew! I wish you would open a Bed and Breakfast... I would live there 💕😂👨🍳 thank you... by the way, I like your longer videos we get to know more about you and see the whole process Win/Win 👨🍳have a good week, glad to see the fall you and Mr. Fox took has not held you back. Stay safe and warm 💕
Thank you, Tiffany!
It looks perfect for his Irish stew recipe.
What a magnificent loaf of bread! 🤩I can just imagine a smaller version baked just for a lobster bisque bowl of soup. Ah, pure heaven. 😇Thank you for this video and recipe. I am always grateful to you and so happy I subscribed to your channel. Have a fabulous evening! Bon Appetit! 😊❤🙏
About "'I'm always afraid people will just turn off the video" during the part where you're kneading the dough. I found it hypnotizing an re-watched this part three times 😄
Thank you, Jakob!
Absolutely delicious love this recipe. I so agree with you other beer breads tastes like cake. I’ve been making bread since I was a teen I enjoy baking so much. I’m glad I found your channel so I can try out more of your bread recipes. Thank you so very much for this recipe.
Hi Robin - Hope you will give this bread a try. I think it tastes even better than sour dough!
@@kevinleejacobs1364 oh it’s delicious made it last night and with company over I had not a crumb left. I’ll definitely be remaking it.
Thanks to birthday parties I found a can of beer in the cooler. Never waste I don’t drink but this had to used. Lol. Bread turned out great!
I'm so glad!!!

I'm making this today...dough is ready for the rise...I'm at high altitude so I just used 1 tsp instant yeast, snd I used AP flour ( no bread flour in the house)🤦♀️ It's cold today, snowing and hailing. I'll check back later and update you. Take care, I love watching your video's and making your recipes. I've made the white bread and I made the little lemon meatballs...my picky grandsons loved them.
LOVE YOUR TUTORIAL 👏♥️👏👏
I DECIDED I WILL ADD 1-TAB OF BLACKSTRAP MOLASSES….
THANK YOU FOR SHARING 🙏
Enjoyed watching you make this beautiful loaf of bread. I would love to try it, but no dutch oven and arthritic hands; please advise how to knead in mixer with dough hooks and bake in loaf pans. Thank so much.
Thanks Kevin! I don’t enjoy beer but I love beer bread. Go figure! This looks yummy but I don’t own a Dutch oven so will have to make mine in a loaf pan. It looks so tasty!
Use a pizza stone with a stainless pot upside down on the stone over the dough! I do this with sourdough. I’m going to try this beer bread!
Fantastic! Works with almond flour???
Hi Kevin, I made your tomatoe pie. It was delicious. Tank you so much
So glad you enjoyed the Tomato Pie!
i used half a round for bread pudding with butterscotch flavored liquor with caramel & it was a hit!!!
Yay!!!
Kevin I'm looking for a soft raisin bread recipe, maybe you can show us how to make it your way , thanks
Watched again, this time I make it. I added shredded unsweetened coconut, dried minced onion, and small chunks of very hard parmesan cheese. preheating dutch oven to 450 now. No doubt, the waiting is the hardest part.
Let me know how the bread turns out with your additions!
You kill me Kevin😜 here I go again.... See I just cannot resist making you different loaves, English muffins etc. The potato bread was soo yummy and didn't last long in my home..... However this beer bread is my next task😋..
Loaf and best wishes 🤗🍞🥖🇿🇦
That crunch! This looks absolutely gorgeous 😍. This is another one of your bread recipes that will definitely go into rotation at my house. Thanks for the awesome video. I hope that my crust can be as great as yours.
Keep the recipes coming...
I made this the other day but unfortunately had an oven failure so I ended up refrigerating it over night and rolling it into balls and making dense little goofball sized rolls that I baked at 400 rather than 450. That said, the flavor is wonderful and I will give this another try after I clean my oven 😂
