Our take on the Gorton's Beer Battered Tail-On Shrimp

Gorton's Beer Battered Tail-On Shrimp is a frozen box of five whole, tail-on shrimp in a batter made with real draft beer, sold in a 9 oz package. They cook from frozen in a 425°F oven for 14–16 minutes or in an air fryer at 400°F for 10–12 minutes, and the box keeps for about 540 days in the freezer. The 9 oz box holds only five shrimp, so it is a small, snack-sized portion rather than a family meal.

About the Gorton's Beer Battered Tail-On Shrimp

Bring the heritage of the sea to your table with Gorton’s Beer Battered Whole Shrimp. Founded in 1849 in Gloucester, Massachusetts—America's oldest seaport—our pioneering spirit led us to develop the first frozen convenience foods. Today, we continue that legacy by coating tender, tail-on shrimp in a batter made with real draft beer for a signature, pub-style crunch. Preparing a delicious meal is simple: cook from frozen in a 425°F conventional oven for 14–16 minutes, flipping halfway through to ensure an even crisp. For an even crunchier bite, they’re perfect for the air fryer—just cook at 400°F for 10–12 minutes. Always ensure the shrimp are cooked to an internal temperature of 145°F. Whether serving as a protein-packed snack or the star of a family dinner, these shrimp are incredibly versatile. Try pairing them with a tangy cocktail sauce or a zesty malt vinegar dip. For a fresh twist, toss them into sweet chili tacos with cabbage slaw or wrap them in bacon and cheese for a decadent appetizer. At Gorton’s, our dedication to sourcing the freshest seafood has only grown, ensuring you enjoy "Goodness You Can Taste" in every single bite.

Questions and answers

Is the 9 oz box enough for a meal?
It holds five shrimp, which is closer to a snack or an appetizer for one or two people. For a family dinner, plan on two or more boxes.
How do I cook them?
Bake from frozen at 425°F for 14–16 minutes, flipping halfway, or air fry at 400°F for 10–12 minutes. Cook to an internal temperature of 145°F.
Are they gluten-free?
No. The batter is made with real beer and wheat flour, so they contain gluten and are not suitable for a gluten-free diet.
Do they contain alcohol?
The batter is made with real draft beer, but most of the alcohol cooks off during frying and baking. The flavor of the beer remains.
Are the tails on?
Yes. These are whole, tail-on shrimp, so you remove the tail before eating.
When is the best time to buy them?
Frozen seafood like this often goes on sale around party seasons and game days. Compare the per-ounce price across stores, since the box is small.
