I began an apricot wheat brew on March 25. I added apricot puree on the 28th. I had intended to bottle a little earlier, but life got in the way. OK to go ahead and bottle this or is the fruit addition a problem being on the yeast this long? Will add 4 oz. lactose and 2 oz. apricot extract along with the 3'4's cup dextrose at bottling.

I think that it may turn out better because it has had more time for the flavors to mellow. I think you're going to enjoy this one!

I did an apricot hefe over the winter, it definitely improved with age. The apricot flavor melded better and the tartness came through better.
