I use whatever is in the fridge..usually something blonde because that is what I normally drink

Mine's most likely pilsner, because that's what most of the local beer is.

On the rare occasions u deep-fry something like that, yes, and my preferred beer for it is a lighter style, like a pilsner.

I think it's important that someone who makes beer batter likes to drink beer. I mean, rarely does anyone add 12 ounces of beer to their batter, Amiright? It's sinful to waste beer so someone has to drink what's left!

Indeed. The remainder doesn’t stand a chance. Just enough left to get me to the fridge to get myself another one. .

Beer doesn't get wasted here. I have a fridge full in the garage. From corona to Heineken.

Pilsner seems popular so I wont be scared to use next time.

Benjamin Franklin Quotes About Beer | A-Z Quotes

I guess beer didn't get approved beyond the pearly gates.

For years I believed this:
Benjamin Franklin once said: "Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy." Turns out he didn't. Dratted Snopes.

That's obvious, because as the saying goes : "Beer is Life; the rest is just details."
