    BEER AND CHEESE BREAD
    2 cups beer
    2 tablespoons sugar
    1-tablespoon salt
    2 tablespoons butter
    5 cups all-purpose flour
    1-    8-ounce package American Cheese
    2 packages dry yeast
    1-tablespoon caraway seed

    Grease two bread pans, and one large mixing bowl. In a large saucepan, beat beer. sugar, salt. butter and cheese. Reserve one half cup of beer to cool the mixture to lukewarm. In a large mixer bowl. combine two cups of the flour, two packages yeast and caraway seed and mix well. Add the lukewarm cheese and beer mixture. Beat about three minutes at medium speed. By hand, mix in the other three cups of flour. making it a fairly stiff dough. Knead dough on floured surface for about five minutes. Place in a large greased mixing bowl, then turn the dough in that in turning. the top is lightly greased. Cover and allow, to rise in a warm place until double in size. Remove bowl and punch down the dough and divide in half. Roll out each of the halves eleven inch by five inch rectangle. Cut each rectangle into three strips (the long way) leaving the top joined. Braid each piece and place each in a greased bread pan. Cover and let rise, to double in size about 45 to 60 minutes. Brush top with milk and sprinkle with sesame seed or caraway seed. Place in pre-heated oven at 350° and bake 40 to 45 minutes, until deep golden brown. Loaves will sound hollow when tapped. Remove from pans immediately, cool on racks.
