The Lenten season is here and [Roy Rogers Restaurants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wild-dill-sandwich) has expanded beyond its usual range of burgers, roast beef, and chicken to include a new Beer Battered Cod Sandwich.

The new sandwich starts with a high-quality natural cod fillet bathed in a Yuengling beer batter. The fish is then topped with tartar sauce and American cheese, and served on a corn-dusted Kaiser roll. The idea is that the fish-based offering gives consumers a [seafood alternative](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/happy-crabby-sandwich) to nosh on during the Lenten season. As Adam Klaers, Executive Vice President at Roy Rogers Restaurants, explains, "The Yuengling Beer Battered Cod Sandwich was a fan-favorite during this time last year, so we will continue to provide that offering, along with additional limited time offers, for our Royalists.”
