  FOR SHELLS:
    Preheat oven to 350F.  Lightly grease baking sheet.  Bring water to 
 boil in medium saucepan.  Add butter and let melt.  Add flour, stirring 
 quickly until dough forms ball.  Transfer to mixing bowl.
   Using electric mixer at medium speed, add eggs 1 at a time, beating 
 thoroughly after each addition.  Spoon 1-1/2- to 2-inch mounds onto baking 
 sheet or fill pastry tube with dough and mound onto sheet. Bake until 
 golden brown, about 40 minutes.  Let cool completely in draft-free area.
 
   Slide partway through each shell and fill with ice cream.  Wrap   each 
 puff with foil and freeze until solid, at least 1 hour.
 
  FOR BATTER:
  Combine flour, beer and eggs in medium bowl and mix well.
 
  Heat oil to between 350F and 375F.  Dip frozen puffs in batter and
  deep fry until golden brown.  Quickly drain on paper towels. Place
  each puff in individual serving dishes and pour syrup on top. Serve  
 immediately.
