Take the 2-minute tour ×  Lately I've been trying fantastic
beers brewed with tart cherries. Where is the best place to
source this product? Do I buy as whole fruit, frozen fruit,
puree? When and how should I add this product, and what affect
will different approaches have on my beer?  share|improve this

Type of Fruit  As with most flavor related questions...it
depends; sorry. There are generally four or five fruit sources:
Fresh Fruit, Frozen Fruit, Fruit Puree, Fruit Juice, and Fruit
Extract. Each is going to give you a different flavor, and
depending on the fruit flavor you're looking for, one or the
other might be the best. The real answer is that you should test
all of them.  But, going from my experience, I'd narrow it down
to Fresh, Frozen, or Puree.    • The Oregon Puree's are very
good products and you generally don't need to worry about
sanitation. There are probably other puree's out there, too.   •
Fresh fruit is great. I live in Michig
