Cranberry beer

Dec 21, 2007 2 Replies

I once made the mistake of brewing a watermelon beer for my wife and now about every 3 months she begs me for a new fruity type beer (nothing sweet mind you, just a good pilsner with a fruity after taste). Well now she want's a cranberry one but I'm a little nervous about altering my current fruit recipe beer for this one since I would imagine the berries to be a bit high on the acidic side, not to mention somewhat bitterly sour ( I hate cranberries so I'm not really an expert on them). So does anyone have a good extract recipe for a cranberry beer?


Did you try google?

I can't recommend any, since I also don't like cranberries.

The windriverbrew.com site has a nice Cranberry bog ale that I made and it came out quite nice. If you are using all grain as I am I just converted the recipe with the beersmith applicaton. I used the cranberry extract to flavor the ale.
