I am making my first fruit beer, a Dark Cherry Stout. I am looking for that dark coffee, choco flavor with a sweet cherry flavor on the front of the taste as well as the back. I love full flavored beers. I want the sweetness of the cherries to come through but not be over powering to the stout taste. I am planning on a half lbs of cherries for a 5 gal batch.
When would you put the cherries in?
A.) Last 10 minutes of boil?
B.) Primary?
C.) Secondary?
D.) Eat the cherries. Fruit beer is for (insert funny but off-colored slur here).
