Method

In a large bowl, stir together water, honey, and yeast and let sit until foamy, about 10 minutes. Add beer and oil and stir until smooth. Add flour and salt and stir until a rough dough forms. Transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth, about 8 minutes. Cover with a towel and let rise in a warm spot until doubled in size, about 45 minutes.
