I recently made a relatively light wheat beer. I added around 10#s of fresh picked cherries to the secondary. THe beer is now kegged, chilled, and carbed. The problem is that the beer is just not that good. The cherries were probably not the best type as they left an overpowering cherry taste void or any sweetness or tartness which would have been desireable. I dont want to simply backsweeten or add cherry syrup.
My question is whether or not it would be too late to "re-ferment" this batch with some type of brett or other bugs? my ideas were to either make a very small batch or similar wheat beer, then mix together with what I have and then add bugs? or to possibly just add some type of clean fermentable sugar and re-pitch the bugs.
Does anyone have any recommendations?
