Found bags of this at our local hardware store(?) and were like “We have to try this!”
Despite the name, you mix the mix with beer. Yes, they have a pairing chart. For non-alcoholic options, you can use other sparkling beverages, for the cranberry/orange loaf I used a sparkling pear.

Came out super tasty. More dense than “bread” bread, almost a cornbread or banana bread texture. Which makes sense since there was no rising time.
This isn’t really a sourdough replacement. I think the name is just trying to be a clever play on words. As you’ll be sober, since you’re pouring your beer into the bread.
Also this is a quick bread leavened with baking soda, rather than a yeasted loaf. It uses the beer for extra flavor, but it honestly looks like a gimmick, given the substitution choices include sparkling water.
