5 Fruits We’re Most Excited About for 2025
Hey brewers! Looking to add some seriously killer fruit flavors to your beers in 2025? We're right there with you, always on the hunt for the juiciest, most exciting fruits the world has to offer. After some serious research (and a lot of taste testing!), we've got five fruits that have us absolutely buzzing with excitement. These aren't just your standard fruit additions; they're bringing some unique and innovative flavor profiles to the brewing scene.
Strawberry Puree: A Classic Choice, Perfected
Our Strawberry puree is a customer favorite for a reason. We start with a blend of freshly grown strawberries from California and Mexico, combining the sweetness of California-grown berries with the vibrant color and juiciness of Mexican varieties. This results in a puree with a rich, sweet, and slightly tart flavor profile, reminiscent of jam, making it ideal for brewing, baking, or even crafting cocktails.
We've dedicated significant effort to refining our Strawberry puree recipe over the years, and we're thrilled to see it used in a wide range of excellent beverages.
Raspberry Puree Concentrate: Concentrated Flavor and Versatility
Our Raspberry Puree Concentrate offers a balance between a single-strength puree and a highly concentrated juice concentrate. Its thicker consistency and 50° Brix level provide a concentrated flavor and a jam-like character.
This concentrate is an excellent option for brewers seeking to maximize flavor while potentially reducing costs compared to single-strength purees.
Blackberry Concentrate: Intense Flavor for Boosting and Blending
Our Blackberry Juice Concentrate is a highly concentrated version of our popular Blackberry Puree. It delivers an intense, rich blackberry flavor, making it a valuable addition for enhancing purees or other concentrates.
We're enthusiastic about the potential of our Blackberry Concentrate, especially given the positive reception of our Blackberry Puree.
Maple Series (Apple): A Unique New York Fusion
Our Apple Maple puree blends real maple syrup with apple puree, creating a distinctive flavor combination that embodies New York's agricultural heritage.
With New York being a major producer of both maple syrup and apples, this puree offers a unique and locally inspired flavor profile.
Blueberry Puree and Concentrate: Versatile Options for Diverse Applications
Our Blueberry puree features a smooth, thick texture and a dark purple color. Its sweetness comes from perfectly ripened blueberries, and its single-origin sourcing ensures consistent flavor year-round.
For those seeking even more concentrated flavor, our 64° Brix Blueberry Concentrate delivers. It's particularly well-suited for lighter-bodied beers like wheat beers and lagers, and it also works well in culinary applications such as pies and smoothies.
Both our Blueberry puree and concentrate have been popular among our team and customers, and we're eager to see how they are utilized in various beverages and food products.
