    Any alcohol would evaporate during the baking process.

    Sure, you can put alcohol into the dough which will retain flavor, but like the others have said the actual alcohol will be gone by the time you bake  your bread.

    Ergo, if you wish alcoholic bread, you have to put the alcohol in after baking. 

    As this might make the bread soggy, why not just have a drink along with the bread.

    Any bread recipe that uses yeast has alcohol in it.

    Only before it's baked, alcohol evaporates at a much lower temperature than a moderate oven.

    True, but she didn't specify timing in her question.

    She didn't have to, uncooked dough isn't bread. It's only bread after it's baked, which destroys the alcohol.

    Look at how I phrased my answer, "any bread recipe."  It's too early here for semantics.

    I never knew about this, Harry, my friend teased me the other day saying you are consuming alcohol whenever you consume bread...I was stunned...;))

    Nope. Alcohol (ethanol) boils at 173 degrees at sea level air pressure. Baking requires MUCH higher temperatures. This post was edited by Slartibartfast at October 17, 2017 11:35 PM MDT

    I misread your question. I thought you said "BEARD". Maybe the homeless do, or the bikers, but millennials only have mineral water and jojoba oils. lol
