BEER DRINKER'S PIZZA DOUGH

Steps:

• In the bowl of an electric mixer, whisk to combine beer, 2 tablespoons olive oil, sugar, salt, and yeast. Fit bowl on electric mixer fitted with a dough hook, mix until incorporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Slowly add flour, and mix until dough is fairly stiff, about 10 minutes.
• On a lightly floured work surface, knead dough until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Brush the inside of a large bowl with remaining tablespoon olive oil; transfer dough to bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover bowl with plastic wrap, and leave in a warm place until dough has doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Punch down dough, and transfer to a clean surface. Using a bench scraper or sharp knife, divide dough into quarters; keep covered with plastic wrap.

BEER DRINKERS' PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Wrap garlic in a piece of parchment-lined foil. Roast until soft, 20 to 30 minutes. Let cool, and squeeze cloves to remove pulp.
• In a medium bowl, stir to combine roasted garlic, tomatoes, 1 tablespoon olive oil, oregano, and basil. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
• On a pizza peel dusted with flour, place one-quarter of the dough. Using your fingers, begin to flatten and push dough evenly out from center until it measures about 12 inches in diameter. Crimp edges to form a rim. Sprinkle one-quarter of the mozzarella onto dough. Spoon 1/2 cup of the tomato mixture over mozzarella.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over high heat. When very hot but not smoking, reduce heat to low. Lift pizza peel and, using a slight jerking motion, slide pizza about one inch back and forth on the peel to loosen it. Slightly tilt the peel, and slide the pizza off the peel, centering it in the skillet. Cover skillet, and cook until pizza is golden on the bottom, about 10 minutes. Repeat with remaining ingredients.

NO-YEAST BEER PIZZA DOUGH

Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, and salt with a wooden spoon, whisk, or dough whisk. Pour in the beer and continue mixing until a sticky dough forms and begins to pull away from the sides of the bowl.
• Dust a work surface generously with flour. Scoop the dough onto your work surface and knead it until it is smooth and elastic and no longer sticks to your hands, sprinkling with more flour as needed. Divide the dough into 2 equal pieces and form each one into a ball. Cover the dough balls with plastic wrap or a large upside-down bowl. Let rest for at least 15 minutes or up to 2 hours before using.
• Roll or stretch the dough as you would any other pizza dough, transfer it to an oiled baking sheet or floured pizza peel (if using a baking stone/steel), and top it with whatever toppings you like.
• If you're using a baking sheet, bake the pizza at 500°F for 10 to 12 minutes or until the crust is golden. If using a baking stone/steel, place the stone or steel in the bottom third of the oven, preheat to 500°F or as hot as your oven can get, and then turn on the broiler. Shimmy the pizza from the peel to the stone and broil the pizza for 5 to 7 minutes, until the crust and toppings have begun to blister.
