Hey brewers,
This question is predominantly about a sour I brewed, but I figure it probably applies to many fruit beer styles...
I made two sours, passion fruit and a mixed red fruits, both brewed & primary fermented together, then secondary fermented seperately on the relevant fruits.
The former turned out great, the latter lacked a little body... aside from adding more fruit, would adding oats in the grain bill also help giving it more body? Would it also help bring the fruit flavour through a little more too, or would only more fruits do this?
Cheers.
