Baking "Beer" Bread

Technically, I modified a Honey-Oatmeal Bread recipe from my Better Home & Gardens cookbook by adding in a few "beer" ingredients. 

The orange package is the German Wheat Beer Yeast Matt did not use to make his hefeweizen home-brew, so I used it to make this bread.  I also used the Stone Arrogant Bastard Ale extract that we created when baking beer biscuits for the Super Bowl.

The downside: the prep, rise time and baking took nearly 4 hours! 

Aside from being very dense, it tastes yummy.  I have a feeling I didn't give the yeast enough time to "waken."
