I'm sure AllenH can chime in on this.


I generally avoid pepper beers that aren't stouts (had a bad run in with that con calor Founders beer), so I haven't picked one up yet.
Edit* Mango Magnifico is the beer I was thinking of

Ah, makes sense. It definitely looked like it was hovering above the countertop.

I could go for another strawberry blonde. Very nicely brewed beer.

I'm thinking of doing one this summer. I have a solid blonde recipe, how do I best add the strawberry? I was thinking of dropping a pound of frozen berries, in a muslin bag, into the secondary for two weeks. Good plan?

For a typical 5-gallon recipe you aren't going to get a whole lot of strawberry flavor from a pound. It sort of depends on what you want out of it though. I use 4 pounds in my recipe (see link to the left).

One pound will add pretty much nothing. I've brewed with strawberries before, but never done a strawberry blonde, but I was recently able to try Hello's, very good beer. It had a nice strawberry aroma and flavor without overpowering the whole beer. Perhaps she can share how many strawberries she used.

I rack onto 5# frozen strawberries and 1/2# lactose. Had 3 of those strawberry blondes earlier, and now onto a PA.
