Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven. Heat oven to 350°F.
Step 2
Make the batter. In a large mixing bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, and salt until combined. Slowly pour the beer and honey into the flour mixture, and stir until combined.
Step 3
Add the butter. Pour half of the melted butter into the bottom of a 9×5-inch bread pan, and brush it around to grease the inside of the pan. Add the batter and spread it out in an even layer. Then brush the remaining melted butter evenly on top of the batter.
Step 4
Bake. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, until a toothpick or knife inserted in the middle comes out clean. Remove and transfer the pan to a wire baking rack and let the bread cool for at least 10 minutes.
Step 5
Serve. Slice with a bread knife, serve warm and enjoy!

Chef's notes
If your honey seems super-thick and does not drizzle easily, I recommend warming it up in the microwave or on the stovetop for a few seconds so that it will mix into the batter more easily.
Feel free to customize the bread with herbs, garlic, or cheese.
