Notes: Wheat malt provides a crisp and mild malt backbone to an otherwise dry, yeast-forward beer. The addition of sugar helps to enhance the already dry and crisp mouthfeel.
The single ounce of Czech Saaz provides a mild herbal hoppiness, but due to its addition in a hopstand, it adds virtually no bitterness. As a result, the Lactobacillus in the Brettanomyces/Lactobacillus blend produces a notable acidity. While not as tart as a gueuze or a Berliner weisse, it's more sour than a typical saison.
Fruity and peppery, Wyeast's French Saison strain is highly attenuative, producing a dry beer, especially when coupled with the Brettanomyces blend. At the same time, it's high glycerol production leaves a fuller mouthfeel than is typically found in dry ales.
The Brettanomyces blend is primarily Brettanomyces Drei (guava, passion fruit, and apricot), with lesser amounts of Brettanomyces Bruxellensis (cherries, leather, barnyard funk) and Brettanomyces Claussenii (pineapple, citrus, mild funk).
The resulting beer should be dry, slightly sour, crisp, and pleasantly fruity. Expect acidity, lemon, tropical fruit, and pepper, supported by rustic funk and mild herbal notes. |

Notes:
OG = 1.050
FG = 1.010
ABV = 5.25%
Nose is slightly sweet, pleasant yeasty aroma, no discernible hop aroma,
color is "reddish" amber with slight brown overtones, froth is light beige to white with good retention, some legs remaining as is drank.
Taste is of moderate to light carbonation, slightly sweet malty backbone with very light caramel overtones with rich taste, good body, very smooth with lingering bitterness that is well balanced to its overall taste.
In my opinion, somewhere between a Newcastle Brown Ale and Karl Strauss Red Trolley Ale as an example.
Temperature is key here, as is using a starter. Used two litters of ambient water to package of liquid yeast. Added 1/4 cup honey as "food" but not enough to start fermentation. Allowed to sit in dark for 24/36 hours before added to wort. I attribute the starter technique to the "attenuation" being 79%
During fermentation, never got above 66 F and averaged 64-66 F during the first seven days. Secondary/conditioning allowed to rise to 68 F for the remaining seven days prior to cold crashing and filtering into kegs. Allowed to rest an additional seven days prior to drinking
I use a water bath to control temperature and glass carboy. Fermentation started in under 12 hours which was robust and had to change overflow bottle twice.
As is always maintained is meticulous sterile/clean procedure.
