 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    1      cake          dry yeast
    2      tablespoons   sugar
    1                    egg -- slightly beaten
      2/3  cup           milk
    1      teaspoon      salt
    2      tablespoons   melted shortening
    4 1/2  cups          flour (approx)
    6      tablespoons   beer
 
 Gradually add small amount of flour to this mixture until you have used about
 4 1/2 cups, while adding the small amounts of flour, add also 2 tablespoons of
 beer at a time . Mix thoroughly after each addition.  Do not use to much
 flour.  When dough is just dry enough to knead, and it should be slightly
 moist, knead until bubbles appear in the dough.
 Then dip entire batch of dough in melted butter, cover and let rise for about
 1 1/2 hours in a warm place.  
 Roll out dough to make rolls of your choice.  
 Bake at 475 oven until they are done.
