My buddy started doing a Cactus Pear Wheat that is pretty awesome. It's just 5 lbs 2 row, 5 lbs wheat, and 1/2 lb honey. Throw in 1.25 oz EKG at 60 min and 0.5 oz Cascade at flameout. Use a dry yeast like S-05 (you can use 1056 if you want to use a smack pack. Let it ferment out and rack onto 4 cactus pears (he freezes them first). He's tried multiple batches to get the amount of cactus pear correct and 4 has come out the best.

Pete's Place near my home town brews a peach choc beer that I really didnt think i'd like but it's actually great for a hot summer mower/summer session beer. I think any US light wheat beer recipe using peaches in the secondary would be pretty close.

Well it's not exactly a fruit beer but it tastes like a lot of citrus especially grapefruit. Morebeer has an inexpensive all citra kit that is really just a great summer ale!

I have a couple quarts of brandy cherries I received from a friend.

I'm going to take a swing at a cherry wheat in the near future.

It's not beer but you might try Skeeter Pee: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f25/skeeter-pee-195681/
