I wonder if the beer is really needed (with its yeast) as a leavener. Three cups of flour and three teaspoonfuls of baking powder sound like a regular ratio of flour to b. powder.
Of course, the beer might be for the taste. And it would be substitutable.
I'm allergic to beer, so my fingers are crossed.
