Does anyone have a good blueberry ale recipe? Something similar to Bar Harbor's offering. If not what wouldbe a good base recipe to add blueberry to?
i was hoping to find an ale recipe not really a wheat; i really want a clearer purple color. I know its just aesthetics but I think visual perception does affect taste; especially swmbo's
Yes, I think that would do it.Purple....? - Blue and a little red??
This is sounding really good. I'm no good with recipe formulation now, but the idea of having a standard ale with fresh (frozen) blueberries added in secondary to give it a purplish hue is practically making my mouth water. Unfortunately, the orchard I go to for fresh produce in the summer doesn't have blueberries, though that list is from last year. Anyone in WNY have other places to go?
Eh, I got raspberry flavoring for my raspberry wheat extract kit last summer and wasn't happy with it at all. Although it mellowed, there was always the taste of taking a sip and saying 'oh look, you added raspberry flavoring to this.' Not subtle at all, and very manufactured. So, if possible, I'd like to use fresh stuff from now on
You could always add a little yeast at botteling time right?
enough time it willI'm hoping the tartness of the blueberries will balance with the sweetness munich.
