1 kg of juniper berries. Many people associate the berries as the main flavoring in gin. Juniper berries have been used in Porter and Stout Doppelbock for centuries. Their flavor is combined excellently with the rye beer, and blends well with the citrus notes of ginger and orange peel, coriander and liquorice as well. Crush the berries with a mortar and pestle before use. Aromatic herbs are used to brew Belgian Bière Blanche, Grand Cru, Tripples and Christmas Beers. They are usually added in the last 15 minutes of boiling. In ancient times herbs were used to extend beer’s storage time.
