Yeah its perfectly fine and tasty! Especially if you know what a soda bread is an are expecting that. The lemon poppy seed one looks amazing, I might try to make one from scratch since I have all the ingredients in the pantry anyway (except for ascorbic acid)

The best thing you can do for these types of recipes is to stop mixing immediately after the dry bits are incorporated, and bake the batter immediately after mixing since the baking powder and baking soda make bubbles immediately when you mix in your fizzy acidic beverage of choice. Same reason why you don’t wanna over mix pancake batter, better to leave it lumpy and slightly undermixed.
Edit: Compare the top of your baked bread to the top in their marketing materials: did you add too much liquid (the recipe says 10oz not the full 12oz beer) or overmix?
