I’m not a scientist but doesn’t the alcohol burn off during the cooking process. Vodka was used in some batters for the fluffiest results

Something tells me you can just use sparkling water instead then, I've seen similar for fried chicken recipes.

Some religious observances won't tolerate cooking with alcohol but if that is not a concern then all the alcohol will be removed by the cooking process.

The amount of alcohol will be burned off in the cooking process for starters.
You might try and use some tempura batter either full amount or say 60/40 tempura flour and regular flower.
Pinch of salt and some white pepper for seasoning and an egg mix well and dredge fish through batter and cook.
I'm sure many of the members here will chime in with their recipe or try you tube and or google.
Just surf through a bunch and look for commonalities ...stay away from any that claim these are the best recipes ever and award winning.
Bon Appetite.

Any Tempura batter recipe fits the bill. Just substitute the soda water for beer. Avoid over salting the batter as it will effect the consistency. Use a vegetable like broccoli or cauliflower to test the batter and oil temperature first. A dry rub of flour on the fish before dipping into the batter is a good trick for a consistent coating. Also make the batter on the thicker side to begin with ( about the same as pancake batter ) You can add more beer or soda water if it's too thick. Sprinkle a little salt on it after cooking it. Enjoy
