Detach the raw scampi heads, place the tails in a large pot, sprinkle with the powdered court-bouillon and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, lower the heat and simmer for 8 minutes. Drain thoroughly. Pour the beer in a bowl, dip each scampi tail into the beer, then into the flour seasoned with salt and pepper. Deep fry 6 at time in a large quantity of very hot oil. Drain on a paper towel serve with the quartered lemons.
