Method

Beer Battered Fish

1

Prepare the Batter

In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and white pepper. Gradually whisk in the Cahaba Blonde Ale until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.

2

Heat the Oil

In a deep pot or fryer, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (180°C).

3

Batter the Fish

Dredge the cod fillets in a bit of flour first, then dip them into the beer batter, allowing any excess to drip off.

4

Fry the Fish

Carefully place the battered fish into the hot oil and fry for about 4-5 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.
