Hello all,
I've made alot brews primary Ale's and a few lagers. Typically, I stay away from the sweet stuff unless it's a milk stout. My wife has taken a like liken to Summer shandy (yuck). I have talked to a few local craft brew shops about making a shandy at home and the consensus is if it's not kegged or using lemonade powder it's out of the question. I don't have the space for a kegerator and I think it's blasphemy to use artificial flavors in a beer. I have looked into stevia which is a natural sweetener that's not fermentable. I have made lemon honey Weiss in the past. Would it be possible to make a Weiss base (3-4 gallons) and 1 gallon of stevia lemonade and mix in a secondary carboy? Let me know.
