So i have 7 month old Flanders Red i'm thinking of adding cherries to...Kriek it up a bit...
I'm in Maine and cherries aren't the most common fruit around so this is probably going to take some searching to find the right stuff....
given that info...what are the best varieties of cherries for sour beers?
from what I've read, sour cherries are the ticket, but what varieties are sour?
Bonus questions:
1.Are there any sour cherries that are available/grown in Maine/NH?
1a. If yes, what are the varieties that can be had?
2. How many lbs per gallon?
3. If they are canned will i still need to freeze them?
