==Beer-Friendly Fruit==
There are no fast rules about adding fruit to beer. Fruit flavors can be added fresh, frozen, cooked, smoked, pureed, juiced, zested, and even added as an extract. Also adding fruits in different stages of the brewing process can greatly affect the flavor.   ===Methods===* '''Fresh Fruit''' - Popular While fresh fruit sounds good in theory, fresh fruit is VERY dirty and can carry unwanted microbes into your brew.* Adding to Mash - Some rare recipes will call for adding fruit to the top of the MLT when sparaging. The drawback is that the acids from the fruit could pull unwanted flavors are mentioned belowout of your grains.* '''Boiling''' - Only a few fruits are good for boiling ===Fruit===
====Apple====
This can be added to a beer at any stage in the brewing process. A lot of only recipes call for apple juice to be addded into the wort cools. However since the flavor is so mild adding to secondary furmentation will produce stronger outcome.
====Apricot====
This flavor is very subtle and almost non-existant. For tronger flavors
