So, I'm doing a Sour Skittles beer. It's my wife's favorite candy and she loves sour beers. I've got tasting notes from Brett Trois specifically mentioning skittles and candy flavors - so I'm going that way.
I did a basic Golden Strong recipe - but in place of the sugar I did a syrup of Sour Skittles.
The Skittles get their sour flavor from citric acid - it's actually 3rd on the ingredient list.
I've got the base beer fermenting right now - I intend to get it well under way before adding the candy syrup. My question is this: what will the large additions of citric acid do to the fermentation of the Brett?
