Wyeast 3724 Belgian Saison™
Wyeast 3724 Belgian Saison™
Classic farmhouse ale yeast. Spicy and complex aromatics including bubble gum. Very tart and dry on palate with mild fruit. Finishes crisp and mildly acidic.
Notes
Add orange zest-corriander and ginger to the last 5 min. boil. The cane sugar is actuall "sugar in the raw" Imagine this sugar will change the color just a little on the darker side. I plan on fermenting at 85-90 degrees in my garage in late may-early june. Saison yeast needs to ferment at higher temps to release esters and phenol flavors.
