Michigan is known for its craft beer and classic brews such as Stroh’s, all of which are smooth, full of flavor and easy to enjoy on a warm summer’s night. But beer-battered food – where beer is incorporated into the batter used to fry everything from Oreos to fish to cheese – takes beer to its next level of deliciousness.
Everywhere from Detroit to Terry’s Terrace in Harrison Township to Macomb’s quaint village of Romeo (Full disclosure: I grew up there and, no, I didn’t really know Kid Rock) has lots of great beer-battered goodness. Take the Four Corners Diner. It is well known for its onion rings and fried mushrooms, which patrons say are made from scratch and will fill any stomach to capacity.
“When I’m craving beer-battered shrimp, I call in to The Captain’s Table in Pontiac,” said Charlie Wollborg, head of Curve creative agency and one of the brains behind Detroit’s TEDx event. “No frills. Absolutely delicious.” What should you look for in a beer-battered food? The chef should know how to cook it hot and fast. The batter should be thick and flavorful. And the sky’s the limit on what you can throw in that batter. The alcohol inside the beer is cooked off, so it is a great flavor for any age. Built for those who build.

Here is a roundup of some of the tastiest beer-battered goodies – sweet and savory – that are available in Metro Detroit.
