I used a kolsch yeast, and it came out really well. I recently did a 6 gallon batch of American Wheat, split it in half, and added cherry to one half and watermelon to the other.

First I am using a Pale Ale recipe as by base beer. Second I am only doing one five gallon batch with a blueberry puree added to the secondary. Finally my base line comparison is a commercial pale ale. My experiment is on day six in the secondary fermenter. The wheat beer sounds like a very interesting base, especially if you would use raspberries. I think the tartness would go well there. Looking forward to hearing about how it turns out!
