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
Multi-step mash, starting at 122, ending at 152F. Add SG Hops for 60 min boil. Add Irish Moss, Ginger Root and Orange Peel at 15 min. Add Saaz at 2 min. Chill, rack to fermenter, aerate and pitch yeast. Ferment 10-14 days. Bottle/Keg and age for 2-3 wks.

Moved to secondary after 2 weeks in primary, gravity 1.022 SG. Used Belgium Ale Yeast (WLP550) rather than WLP565 on advise from LHBS. Will let fermentation finish in secondary, probably another 2 weeks, before kegging. Plan is to keg half in 2.5 G corny and bottle half to age.
so..

Not a good clone for Hennepin

I've brewed this recipe from the BYO replicator site and my brew partner and I were quite dumbfounded how it didn't come close to Hennepin. There is no ginger in Hennepin, or Orange peel, these notes are yeast derived. Adding 1 oz of dried ginger in a 5 gallon batch was so over done that we only referred to this beer as "ginger beer" 2 months in the bottle didn't help, 1 month in the keg and it was still biting. WLP565 doesn't finish as dry as Hennepin really is, you need to pitch a second yeast. No comment about orange peel couldn't taste it over the ginger. Also, according to a comment in Brew like a monk, the Ommegang Brewer commented on using Dextrose, not belgian candi sugar. My advice, drop the ginger and orange, and increase dextrose/sucrose/sugar to get the FG close to 1.010 or lower. Pitch yeast when wort is chilled in the 60s, maintain temp for 4-5 days then let the yeast go into the 80s. Start there, add flavors and spicing according to your initial benchmark.
