Preheat the oven to 375°F. Butter a 9x5 inch loaf pan, or spray with nonstick spray.

In a large bowl combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Melt the butter in a small bowl in the microwave, then stir in the honey. Add the butter honey mixture to the dry ingredients, then pour in the beer. Stir until well combined; the dough will be kind of shaggy.

Transfer to the prepared loaf pan, and spread it out pretty evenly. Bake for about 45 minutes, until a wooden skewer of a knife inserted into the middle of the loaf comes out clean.

Cool the bread in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then turn the bread out of the pan and cool until just barely warm or to room temperature.
