Elderflower sour

[imark]

There's lots of elderflower by my place and I was wondering if anybody had tried making a sour beer with elderflower. I can't find any info on what to expect so wondered if anybody had tried it?
Thinking of using a WLP550 for primary and introducing some fermented elderflower liquor then. Any thoughts or experience?

Beware of Elderflower - it can become very powerful even in small quantities.

I brewed an EF cider for the NHC comp last year and it was marked down as "over the top".

So my advice would be to brew a sour beer (do you mean like Lambic or Geuze?) with a small amout of EF added at end of boil. Also make up some EF tea and EF Syrup. You can then use going into secondary(the EF Tea) or the syrup to blend into the final beers going into keg conditioning/bottling.

My moto is "Its easy to add flavours its a bugger to remove them"

Yeah. Was thinking of getting some elderflower fermenting in sugar syrup and adding to secondary for a lambic ish beer. Hoping for a dry tart result. Haven't used elderflower at all before so it was just an idea I had. Thanks for advice about quantity. I'll bear that in mind.
I'm not sure if the raw elderflower liquor would deliver the desired result?
