    Fruit and Spice Beer Blood Orange Belgian Wit

    you want to avoid any of the pith (white flesh) while zesting and then also peeling the skin off the fruit. If you leave any of the pith while steeping/boiling it will cause a bitter taste. Cheers

    Graham's English Cider

    I always have this on tap. I back sweeten with about 3 cans of apple juice concentrate when I keg it. I do a very low carbonation (just enough to push it thru the faucet). If you are on the fence about brewing this recipe...don't be. I have tried to find a better recipe or commercial ciders and...

    I would just cut the slices of orange into small pieces and not put it into any bag. Once you rack your beer the small pieces of orange should be easy to remove from the carboy.

    It's a Belgian Witbier, it's supposed to have a haze to it. This style is not a clear beer. In fact you should pour most of the bottle out, leave a little and swirl it around to pick up some of the yeast and finish the pour. Cheers

    East Kent Golding are the american version of UK Kent Golding imported and now grown by HopUnion I belive. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. You can use either one (read "they are the same')

    So glad you guys are enjoying the recipe. I have yet to make it with anything other then the Blood Oranges, with all your great results I'm tempted to try it with a different variety. Cheers

    Specialty Fruit Beer Sherie's summer shandy

    Hate to say it but not a lot of lemon flavor...I followed the recipe to the "T" except I used Cluster hops because that is what Leinenkugel's uses. I don't know if by kegging it the lemon drops out of suspension so I lose it after the first few pours or what?? So with bottling you don't lose...

    Just kegged this last night. OG and FG were pretty spot on as well. I think my FG was 1.012 instead of 1.011. Base beer tasted great even before the lemon was added. Can't wait til this is all carbed up and ready to go. Thanks Uniondr!!
