Beer Cake

[Roobeedoo]

POSTED THIS ON FOOD & DRINK... MIGHT DO BETTER HERE!!
Bought a fab cake from school fete and the lady who made it said it was a 'Polton Cake', all ingredients where warmed in a saucepan with a good slug of beer, flour added then put into a loaf tin and baked..... cannot find any firm recipe of ingredients or measures on google. Wondered if anyone else has heard of this cake or even got a version of it. Tastes like a cross between a nice rich dark fruit cake but similar texture of bread pudding!
Thanks
