To get started with this particular recipe, we must prepare a few ingredients. You can cook sourdough beer bread (schwarzbierbrot) using 16 ingredients and 14 steps. Here is how you cook it.

The ingredients needed to make Sourdough Beer Bread (Schwarzbierbrot):
  1. Prepare SOURDOUGH PRE-DOUGH:
  2. Make ready 120 g Rye flour
  3. Make ready 110 ml water (slightly less than 1/2 cup)
  4. Make ready 1 Tbsp sourdough starter/mother (12 g)
  5. Take POOLISH PRE-DOUGH:
  6. Prepare 110 g whole wheat or whole grain spelt flour
  7. Prepare 110 ml water (slightly less than 1/2 cup)
  8. Get 2 pinches active dry yeast
  9. Make ready MAIN DOUGH:
  10. Prepare 1 batch each Finished sourdough + poolish from above
  11. Get 270 g bread flour
  12. Take 115 g dark beer or brown ale (1/2 cup)
  13. Get 2 g active dry yeast (1/2 tsp)
  14. Take 10 g kosher salt (2 tsp)
  15. Make ready 10 g honey, optional (2 tsp)
  16. Prepare 1 handful each flaxseed and sunflower seeds (optional)
Steps to make Sourdough Beer Bread (Schwarzbierbrot):
  1. In separate bowls, mix together the ingredients for the Sourdough Pre-dough and the Poolish Pre-dough. Cover each bowl with plastic and let it at room temp for about 20 hours.
  2. After 20 hours the Sourdough Pre-dough should be a little frothy and bigger. The Poolish Pre-dough will be bubbly and bigger.
  3. In a large bowl, mix together the two pre-doughs and the rest of the ingredients (except for flaxseed and sunflower seeds) until it comes together into a sticky lumpy dough.
  4. Remove the dough onto a well-floured cutting board and knead with the palm of your hands: push the dough down with your hand, fold in over itself and push down again, rotating as you go.
  5. Knead for 15-17 minutes. The dough will become more elastic and smooth. If it sticks a lot to the surface or your hands while kneading, dust with a little more flour and scrape up the dough from the surface to incorporate back in.
  6. If mixing in flaxseed/sunflower seeds, gradually knead them into the dough after the 15 minutes of kneading.
  7. Form into a ball and return to the bowl. Cover with plastic and let rise for 2 hours at room temp (the the dough over itself after 1 hour and return to bowl).
  8. After 2 hours of rising, remove the dough, turn upside down and fold the sides up to form into a ball again (this helps make sure the exposed part of the dough's skin gets moistened again. Let sit for 20 minutes covered with wrap.
  9. Form the round dough into a long, cylindrical loaf. Place it fold-side down on parchment paper and let rise for another 30 minutes.
  10. Meanwhile preheat oven to 480°F/250°C. Place a shallow pan at the bottom rack which we'll use to create steam later. (prepare some boiling water for this too)
  11. When ready to bake, cut a 1 cm deep slit down the center of the bread. (I sprinkled the top of my bread with flaxseed, but I don't recommend this because it got too dark during baking).
  12. Place the loaf on the center rack on a baking sheet and pour boiling water into the pan below it. Bake for 10 minutes, then carefully remove the tray of steaming water. Turn oven down to 430°F/220°C and bake for 30-35 minutes until the crust is dark and crisp.
  13. Remove from oven and let cool on a rack for about 1 hour.
  14. Slice and enjoy with butter, cheese, or your favorite accompaniments with bread :)
