This stuff is very tasty.

Ingredients:

6 pounds, dark DME
6-8 cups altogether, roasted barley, chocolate malt, black patent,crystal
1 ounce, Kent Goldings 60 minute boil
1/2 ounce, Fuggles 30 minute boil
1/2 ounce, Fuggles, dry hop
3 pounds, blackberries
Wyeast Irish Ale

Procedure:

I used frozen blackberries and put them in the bottom of a plastic primary, and poured the hot wort onto them to partially sterilize. No need to crush them up or anything; they were a faint pink by the time I racked to the secondary 5 days later.
