im going to be brewing a Strong Dark Belgian this weekend and I was thinking about adding in a dark fruit like currants and or black cherries to the secondary.. late in the secondary that is.. I’ll be using Wyeast 3864. And I’m shooting for around 10%abv.. I dont want an over powering fruit bomb just a little hint.. I figured the darker fruit flavor would compliment the style and yeast..
Have any of y’all ever added fruit to a strong dark before or have any suggestions?
I made the same recipe last year and just finished the last bottle.. it was most def good but did slightly leave me wanting more.. and for a beer that matures in about a years time yeah just don’t want to be left wanting more out of it..
My favorite strong dark Belgian is the Unibroue Grande Reserve but I figured I wanted to try something a little different..
Any ideas??
Oh yeah the recipe kit is the NB. northy 12 Belgian Quad
