Preheat oven to 450° F. Grease a 9-square baking pan.
In a large mixing bowl, stir together the beer, oil and sugar. Add 3 1/4 cups flour and stir until just combined. If the mixture is too wet, add an additional 1/4 cup flour and just barely mix in.
Turn the dough out onto a well-floured board and knead 4 or 5 times.
Pat or roll the dough into a rectangle about 8 x 10 x 1/4-inch.
Cut rolls with a 3-inch biscuit cutter and arrange the rolls in the greased pan. Re-roll and re-cut dough scraps as necessary.
Bake 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from oven and brush with melted butter. Turn out onto a wire rack to cool slightly. Serve warm.
