I am planning to brew an apple pie ale for my family at Thanksgiving. Just a fruit beer for the family to enjoy and try something unique. I was planning on using two quarts apple cider for flavoring. My question is:
a. Do I substitute 2qts of water in my initial boil for the cider?
b. Do I boil 4.5 gallons and then add 2qts cider?
c: Do I ferment 4.5 gallons and then add 2qts cider to my keg?
Each option might have its own advantages. Anyone experienced in this area. I have not tried this before.
