I've recently brewed a best bitter for my new daughter's christening party. Brew day went perfectly. Her middle name is Rose so I wanted to add some complementary rose character to the beer. My initial thought is to "dry hop" the beer for 3-5 days with approx. 4 oz of rose petals. Recently, though, I've seen that making a tincture out of rose petals and vodka added at packaging might work (FWIW, I keg and force carbonate).
Does anyone have experience with rose petals or any other flower?
The recipe for 5 gal is below.
OG: 1.047
IBU: 35
8.5 lb Maris Otter
.5 lb Crystal 60
2 oz Fuggles @ 60
.5 oz Fuggles @10
1 oz Fuggles @ 0
WLP005 (1L starter pitched and kept at 64)
