Wife and I visited Capitol City Brewery in DC on a getaway trip and they had a Saison on tap (Seasonal). It was incredible! I later emailed them and the head brewer gave me ALL of the recipe's specifics!

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.

The brewmaster at Cap City Brewery said that this was fermented at 78 degrees and that it may take a couple weeks for it to finish as this yeast can be slow. He said be patient! This was a single infusion mash at 147 degrees. It was boiled for 90 minutes for culling extra color and bittering hops were not added until 60 minutes (to go) mark. JunoBrewer~
