I wasn't sure how I felt about the beer batter at first, but it really grew on me. It's so light and crispy.

The beer batter was a bit too thick for my taste, but the fish itself was cooked perfectly.

I've made this recipe several times now, and it always turns out great. The fish is always moist and flaky, and the batter is crispy and golden brown.
