Notes

The LVBC were holding a fruit beer competition and members joined different groups to determine recipes and learn how to brew with fruit. Ultimately, pasturised syrups would have the been the best option but wild fruits and concentrates were going to get a chance.

Da Juicy group consisted of Carmen, Peter Scanlon, Séan & Diarmuid. We met and tasted and discussed possible beers before deciding that we would make one batch of base beer using a belgian ale yeast (spicy, phenolic) which could be split out into 4 demi johns along with the fruit taste decided by members as follows:

#1 Slow Berry & Plum (100gr dried sloes, 4 plums) - Carmen
#2 Apricot & Fig (100gr each of dried fruit) Diarmuid
#2 Cherry, Chocolate (250g Frozen, 2 tsb Cocoa) - Peter
#4 Pineapple Juice (1L concentrate) - Séan

Each demijohn got approx 4 litres and fruit was cleaned, sliced, crushed or poured and added. After fermentation, all beers turned 'wild'.
