Steps:
- Special Equipment: A deep-fry thermometer.
- Lightly season cod with salt and black pepper. Transfer to a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet. Chill, uncovered, at least 1 hour or up to overnight (this air-dries the surface so the batter will adhere better to the fish).
- Whisk flour, cornmeal, seasoned salt, paprika, baking powder, baking soda, in a medium bowl. Add beer, club soda and vinegar and whisk just until combined and no lumps remain.
- Fit a large heavy pot with thermometer; pour in oil to a depth of 3". Heat over medium-high until thermometer registers 375°. Working in batches, dip fish into batter, allowing excess batter to drip back into bowl. Lower carefully into oil and fry until light golden brown and just cooked through, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
- Serve fried fish with tortillas, pico de gallo, hot sauce, pickled vegetables, limes, avocado, cilantro, and cabbage.

Tips:
- Use fresh fish fillets for the best flavor and texture.
- Soak the fish fillets in buttermilk for at least 30 minutes before battering and frying. This helps to keep the fish moist and tender.
- Use a light beer for the batter. Dark beers can make the batter too heavy.
- Be sure to season the batter well with salt, pepper, and other spices.
- Fry the fish in hot oil until it is golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve the fish tacos immediately with your favorite toppings, such as shredded cabbage, salsa, avocado, and sour cream.
