White Labs WLP565 Belgian Saison I
White Labs WLP565 Belgian Saison I
Classic Saison yeast from Wallonia. It produces earthy, peppery, and spicy notes. Slightly sweet. With high gravity saisons, brewers may wish to dry the beer with an alternate yeast added after 75% fermentation.
Notes
Single infusion mash @ 150 for 90 min. Add honey at last 5 min of boil. Left outside w/ cheesecloth over bucket overnight (daring, I know). Pollen-like substance discovered floating on top in the morning along with some strange seed-like things.

You should have seen all the nasty crud floating on the top of this when I went to rack off. I had to scoop it all out with a strainer. I was almost afraid to taste it, but it was incredible! Very true to form. It's also clearifing really well.
A definate favorite amongst friends
