Would anyone recommend dried fruit to be added to a Woodefordes Wherry. I am trying to go for a sort of Wychwood Brewery Bah Humbug style brew with fruity flavors and cinnamon, like a winter warmer.

Does the fruit have to be added to the wort, or to the FV at some stage during fermentation? Could anyone give me some advice on this please?

Many thanks :)
 
Normally the fruit profiles comes from the yeast and/or a combination of yeast and high fv temps, and or some form of sugar, say treacle.
Fruit can be added to the fv, it's very common practice for certain Belgian styles and you can cheat by using essence, but that's a case of trial and error.
