These fritters were a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I would use less cayenne pepper next time.

I love the idea of using beer in the batter. It gives the fritters a light and airy texture.

These fritters were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I would drain them on paper towels next time.

I love the idea of using quahogs in clam fritters. It gives them a unique flavor that you don't get with regular clams.

The fritters were easy to make and had a nice flavor, but they were a bit too dense for my liking.

I followed the recipe exactly and the fritters turned out perfectly. They were golden brown and cooked all the way through. The clam flavor was subtle but present.

I've tried many clam fritter recipes over the years, but this one is by far the best. The secret is in the use of fresh quahogs. The fritters are light and fluffy, with a delicious briny flavor.
