Take a break from the standard corned-beef-and-cabbage fare this St. Patrick's Day, and celebrate another highlight of Irish culture -- its beer. With its range of sweetness, maltiness and dark, earthy flavors, beer has a lot to offer to savory and sweet dishes alike. These hearty but refined recipes showcase all of beer's finest attributes. Brought to you by the spirited home cooks' community at Food52.

This chewy, dense quick bread has a malty sweetness from the beer (rule of thumb: the more flavorful the beer, the more flavorful the bread) and a rich honey color from the beer and the whole wheat flour, which I highly recommend you use. The sweetness is offset by the addition of nutty Parmesan, garlic and heady rosemary, making it suitable for almost any time of day (okay, maybe not an early morning breakfast). It is heavenly spread with a thick cloak of salted butter, or just as is. - Merrill

Yet another use for beer in cooking is in the proper preparation of bratwurst. I buy plain brats, put them in a saucepan, cover the brats with beer and cook them gently for about 15 minutes. Remove the brats from the pan and cook over charcoals, NOT a gas grill please, until the skin is beginning to crispen. Serve with sauerkraut and mustard. Tailgating at Lambeau Stadium was never better.
