Beer Style: Fruit Beer  (20A)
Recipe Type: extract
Yield: 5 US gallons

Fruit Beer

Description:

This is based on Papazian"s "Cherries in the Snow." We used Granny Smith and Macintosh because we wanted high-fructose varieties---besides, we like them. Perhaps the use of Saaz or a more delicate hops would be in order because this was too hoppy. Beer seems to improve with age and after a few months the flavor was described as "immaculate" but with balance tipped more toward hops than apple.

Ingredients:

  • 6.6 pounds, John Bull light malt extract (or other brand)
  • 1 pound, corn sugar
  • 2 ounces, Hallertauer hops (boil)
  • 1/2 ounce, Hallertauer hops (finish)
  • 12 pounds, apples (9 pounds Granny Smith, 3 pounds Macintosh)
  • water crystals
  • 2 packs, Edme ale yeast
  • 3/4 cup, corn sugar (priming)
