THats why every time I post it I very clearly spell out Extra Light Dried Malt Extract, ELDME. We used a darker malt on one some blueberries that came with a beer kit someone gave us, ruined the whole batch, tasted like a weak beer with a lot of blueberries in it! So its got to be ELDME and not enough to replace the sugar, you just want to boost the body a little. Our last batch of strawberry malted had 25 pounds of strawberries for a 5 gallon batch and 3 pounds of ELDME made in 2007, I have to hid a few bottles from myself so we can keep tasting it every year, its still very good, maybe the malt helps keep its flavor?

Cracked

AB does have their 'Wild Blue" blueberry beer.
 
I have the powdered version of the malt now. I'll try it next year on a port! I didn't realize it replaced some of the sugar!! Cool!
