  2. Dice the remaining half tomato and half onion.
  3. Cut the Wreckfish into thin strips, approximately 1 ounce each.
  4. Place the beer and fish into a pot and bring to a boil. Once the mix is boiling, remove from the heat and let sit for 1 minute. Lay out the tortillas. Top each one with 2 strips of the fish, 1⁄2 cup lettuce, a few diced tomatoes and onions and some peach salsa. Enjoy!
  5. Optional sauce topping – combine 1⁄4 cup Mayonnaise with 1 Tbsp Sriracha sauce and spoon some on top of the tacos
