6 lb Extra light dry malt Extract 1 lb Munich malt 1 oz Fuggles boiling 3 Bags frozen cranberries 1 oz Fuggles as finishing hops Yeast
I thawed the berries and blended with enough water to make a little over 2
quarts of slush. Meanwhile I did a normal extract brew using the
Munich malt as a specialty grain (i.e., put in a double layered pair of
clean panty hose and stuck in the pot while I bring the cold water to a
boil). At the end of the hour of boiling I put in the finishing hops and
poured in the cranberry liquid for the final minute or two as I turned
off the heat. I bottled after a week. I am finding it very tasty. After a
month it is somewhat sweet with a distince fruit flavor. Im not sure
that you can identify the flavor as cranberries without knowing which
fruit it is.. It turned out somewhat cloudy but the color is a pretty
rose. Primary Ferment: 1 week
