Ok, so I'm contemplating trying a tomato ale. I've done some searching and can't seem to find much about one. I plan on using a real light blonde as a base and then adding some tomato juice (homemade) to the beer. Here are my questions:
1. When should I add the juice? Boil, primary, secondary, bottling?
2. I'm thinking I'll need to hop very lightly, any ideas on that? Type of hops, or an IBU I should try to shoot for?
3. How much juice should I add? I'm thinking of using about 2 quarts.
Any other ideas would be greatly appreciated!! All comments are welcome!!
