My Wit needs some orange flavor

[nealperkins]

Dunno why but this batch is lacking in orange flavor.
Does anyone have experience adding orange flavor post fermentation?
Thanks

Put a slice of orange on the glass when serving?

You can soak fresh peel in vodka for a few days and then add that.

I've used this strategy before for adding orange flavor direct to a finished beer for wits and for a saison. Works well. Soak some zest (your choice of citrus) in vodka overnight, then pour strained liquid directly into keg.

Id just tear the peel of a fresh orange, dunk in starsan, and toss it into the fermentor. Worked great to up the lemon character of a lemon pepper saison I just bottled
