Taste and season with salt, pepper and lemon juice.
To make the fish: Preheat the oil in the perfect pan to 365°F. For the crispiest result make sure the beer and flour are cold. Make the batter just before frying. In a mixing bowl mix flour, baking powder and salt. Using a whisk mix in the dark beer. Dust the fish with flour. Dip the fish in the batter and allow for ample coating. In batches of two pieces carefully drop the fish into the hot oil. (to avoid overcrowding the pan and lowering the temperature of the oil). Fry for between 4 to 6 minutes.
