The beer will get thrown off with the garlic.

Light Colored Ale is a MUST! If you use a darker-colored or strong-flavored beer such as a stout or IPA it will NOT taste good.

It does depend on how you measured the flour that day (it’s the downfall of using cups vs. Fresh fish is ALWAYS better.Īlso, I have a tartar sauce recipe that goes great with this Beer Batter Fish Fry. I do really recommend buying locally if you can. But if you’re unable to catch your own, buying it from the store is also fine. We always use the fish we catch, we do live right next to the Mississippi River after all, and my oldest has gotten pretty darn good at it. 😉 Then, after a few years I added or took away ingredients, and now… we have our new and improved recipe! I use this batter on shrimp, chicken, cheese curds, and of course fish. Carefully adding and tasting all the ingredients until it was exactly how we liked it – at that time. We cut a lot of small pieces from our fish fillets, courtesy of an ice fishing venture (yes that’s right, Wisconsinites and most Midwesterners for that matter, fish ALL YEAR ROUND), and we began our experiment. I mean, we already catch our own fish, so why not?

My husband and I thought it would be fun, one Friday night, to create our own beer batter. This recipe offers all that deliciousness, but now you can enjoy your alcohol on the table.

Best batter I have found! loved it, followed recipe to a T and turned out perfect.! –Rachel Fiemeyer (via Pinterest )
