I've had the usual lemon / lime in brews. Also raspberry. I got a can of the raspberry puree from HB4L to put into a wheat beer, but have not brewed that yet. The best addition I have had in a beer hands down is bucket style Frozen Margaretta mix(with tequila). Wether in a Corona or other brew, a icecream scoop full of Frozen Mix on top of a glass full of beer is VERY tasty. Also highly intoxicating!

That does sound good. I thought about the raspberry too. Would you just ferment your beer 2 weks or till it reaches 1.110 then rack on to the berries and ferment back down? Would there still be enough yeast for carbonation?
