In a large bowl, mix together the sugar, flour, salt and rosemary. Add beer and continue to mix, first using a wooden spoon and then your hands. The batter will be sticky. Pour into a 9x5" greased loaf pan.
Bake for 50 minutes, basting with butter every now and then. The top will be crunchy and the inside will be soft and fluffy.
Notes:
* Add whatever herb you like or have on hand or leave the herbs out all together.
* Test the doneness with a toothpick. Insert a toothpick in the center of the loaf and if it comes out clean the bread is done. The baking time may vary depending on the weather or your oven.
