beer battered

Dipped in lager

Beer battered describes food—typically fish, onion rings, or other fried items—coated in a batter made with beer before frying.

The carbonation creates a lighter, crispier texture than plain batters: beer battered fish and chips, beer battered onion rings.

The alcohol cooks off, leaving only flavor and texture.
