Cook the bacon until crispy, let it cool, and crumble into small pieces. Set aside.
Add the ingredients to the bread machine in the following order: warm water, beer, olive oil, granulated sugar, salt, flour, and active dry yeast.
Sprinkle the crumbled bacon evenly on top of the flour layer. This helps ensure the bacon is distributed throughout the bread.
Set the bread machine to the 'Basic' or 'White Bread' cycle and select your crust preference (light, medium, or dark).
Start the bread machine and let it work through the mixing, kneading, rising, and baking cycles.
Once the bread is finished, carefully remove it from the bread pan and place it on a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve warm or at room temperature. This bread pairs beautifully with soups, stews, or as the base for hearty sandwiches.
