So I've used vanilla bean before In a porter. But not in a strawberry blonde. I'm brewing 10 gallons and bottling for guests at my wedding in April. Not all, or most of them having the appreciation for anything other then bud or colors light. So I decided to brew a strawberry blonde to hopefully appeal to both sexes. But I'm worried about the tartness of the strawberries. So I've decided I'm going to add some Madagascar vanilla beans I bought from beanilla. Com. My hopes is that it will kind of meld with the strawberry and not smack you with the sweet, only to punch you with the tart. Just wondering if anyone has had luck messing with things like this in your prior brewing.
