It's that time of year and the prickly pears are booming and i have a neighbor who was kind enough to give me roughly 10lbs of the things i'm going to use to make a beer. This will be my first attempt at a fruit beer so i wanted to get some advice from you seasoned vets out there.
I was looking for a base Hefe recipe that will finish in the 5%ish range and was planning to rack the beer on to the fruit in the secondary. Since i never brewed a fruit beer, how much fruit would you folks recommend and do i need to do anything other than peel these things and freeze them before adding to the secondary?
Thanks in Advance!
