For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a sprig of fresh thyme or a bay leaf to the beer while it's simmering. Ensure the lobster tails are thawed completely before steaming for even cooking. Do not overcook the lobster, as it will become tough and rubbery. The meat should be opaque and slightly firm. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
