Clarity isnt a big thing with me but this is very clear i agree its about taste sweet and sour that it is i have tried it with mega oats wheat and pilsner combos but the light lager lets the fruit shine i think . I will use the grain bill for all my fruit beers i think . Till i find something better lol this is one i did with oats 2 yrs back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therealthing691 Posted March 19, 2021 Author Share Posted March 19, 2021 (edited) i think having it dry and less silky without the oats gives it more sourness but both are nice the above is cloudy with the oats Edited March 19, 2021 by therealthing691 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamiek86 Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 do the berries dissolve in to the beer or you fish the remains out or cold crash so fall to bottom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last raspberry beer I did I contained the raspberries in a grain bag then removed from FV prior to kegging. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
