Beer-Infused Culinary Creations: Recipes to Try This Summer

If you’re a fan of both cooking and craft brews, you’re in for a treat. From tender meats to flavor-packed sauces, beer can elevate your dishes to a whole new level. Let’s try some fun and delicious beer-infused recipes. And if cooking isn’t your thing, don’t worry – M.L.Rose has you covered with the best beer-braised wings in town! 😉

1. Beer-Braised Chicken Wings 

These wings are a game-changer, perfect for game days, casual get-togethers, or just a delicious dinner.

How to Make Them:

  • Season your chicken wings with your favorite spices, then sear them in a hot skillet until golden brown. 
  • Next, whip up a sauce with your favorite beer (we recommend a pale ale), soy sauce, honey, and a touch of brown sugar. Let the wings simmer in this flavorful mixture until they’re tender, and the sauce has thickened to a glossy, irresistible glaze.
  • Finish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley, and you have a dish sure to impress.

2. Beer-Infused Mac and Cheese

Mac and cheese is a classic comfort food, but adding beer takes it to a whole new level. The beer adds a subtle, malty flavor that perfectly complements the creamy cheese sauce.

How to Make It:

  • Cook your pasta of choice until al dente. 
  • Meanwhile, create a cheese sauce by melting butter, adding flour to make a roux, and then stirring in milk and beer. As the sauce thickens, blend in your favorite cheeses until you achieve a smooth, creamy consistency. 
  • Combine the pasta with the sauce, top with crumbled bacon if you’re feeling indulgent, and enjoy a bowl of heaven.

3. Beer-Battered Fish Tacos

Fish tacos are a staple of coastal cuisine, and when you add a beer batter, you get a light, crispy, and incredibly flavorful dish that’s perfect for any occasion.

How to Make It:

  • Choose a firm white fish like cod or tilapia. Cut the fish into taco-sized strips and season with salt and pepper.
  • Mix flour, salt, pepper, and a pinch of cayenne in a large bowl over medium heat. Gradually whisk in a bottle of your favorite beer until the batter is smooth and slightly thick.
  • Dip the fish strips into the beer batter, letting the excess drip off before carefully placing them in the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. 
  • Warm your tortillas and fill them with the crispy beer-battered fish. Top with a fresh slaw made from shredded cabbage, a squeeze of lime, and a drizzle of creamy chipotle sauce.
