R.W. Knudsen juice

[ru41285]

So I've got christmas ale fermenting and was going to add 1 32oz bottle of R.W. Knudsen Just Tart cherry juice as fermentation slows down. Does anyone have experience with these juices? Its going into a Scottish ale base that's a bit stronger, og 1.068. Will 1 bottle give enough cherry flavor?

Also what effect on the abv can I expect from using a bottle or how could I figure this out?

Thanks in advance!

In a 5 gallon batch it won’t affect ABV much — probably lower it a hair, since the OG of the juice is significantly less than 1.068 (although fermentability is higher).

I would make sure you give it a good long while to ferment dry. I’ve been faked out by adding juices before and ended up with gushers.
