Amber Expirement Suggestions?

[Eucrid]

So I did a batch of American Amber Ale yesterday and managed to get a full carboy plus a demijohn out of the kettle. I threw a pack 0f s-04 into the demijohn (the main batch was done with wlp051) but I wanted ideas of what I could add in secondary to the small batch for a bit of fun and experimentation.

What sort of fruit or other additions would match up well with a very hoppy (mostly Citra and Amarillo for late additions) Amber?

Isn't a demijohn a 15gal glass carboy? Seems like a helluva underpitch there.

But for fun suggestions, how about steeping some basil in near-boiling water for 15min and pouring in? I've made a bunch of Basil IPAs in the past and I usually go for an amber-ish base. If you search the forums for basil beers I have a lengthy writeup of my techniques.

No this is a 1 gallon demijohn.

Interesting idea, I do have a basil plant so I'll look into it.

I did a Pineapple/Coconut Amber that came out really good...
