This was my first mead ever and I likely made a lot of mistakes!

However, I bottled it after 5 months in primary and it seemed reasonably good! It was a little cloudy so I am now conditioning it and will update this at another time.

Notes: Since "Leffe Brune" is one of my favorite beer.
I have tried to clone it for a while.
I have now created a recipe that is incredibly similar.
I can not distinguish between the beer in a test.
Smoked malt gives the taste of pine tar, and that use of
Safbrew T-58 provides a high FG, allowing that the sweetness remains.
All malts are from Weyermann.

Notes: HUB = Hopworks Urban Brewery, in Portland, OR.

Had a pint of this with dinner tonight, always loved it, now will finally attempt to brew it!

Found the recipe by an alleged HUB brewer on HBT, who has only 1 post on HBT:
http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f12/possible-recipe-hopworks-ipa-clone-217769/

The website says it also has Ahtanum, not Amarillo:
http://hopworksbeer.com/organic-beer/hopworks-ipa

Added carapils, wheat, and melanoidin - these work out pretty well in IPAs for home brewers in terms of head retention and body.

Increased the dry hopping by 2x. Going with Amarillo and Ahtanum. The original is supposed to be 75 IBU and the magnum is adjusted to hit that.

Yeast is a guess, based on a rumor I heard from one of the employees at my LHBS. It actually correlates with Ninkasi's Total Domination - the flavor profile is similar and I've used 1968 in my Total Domination clone and it comes out good. Clean profile desired, so shooting for the lower end of the temp range.

This is just a starting point, could take a few batches to dial it in. I swear I could taste some Simcoe?

This also calls for 'organic' ingredients, which I probably won't be able to get in terms of hops, I will try for organic pilsner at my LHBS.

Notes: Many other Saison Dupont recipes use malts and sugars in addition to Belgian Pilsner; however, many online sources (including a video of the brewery) indicate that Saison Dupont is made using 100% Dingeman's Belgian Pilsner malt. The yeast is also very important for this recipe. Wyeast 3724 is thought to be one strain isolated from Brasserie Dupont, but the actual yeast contains more than one strain. There are mixed reports of success on culturing the yeast from bottles, with some saying it is possible and others saying the strain is a different bottling yeast. Dupont also bottle conditions with the bottles laying on their side. If you pour the beer out of 750 ml bottle and hold the empty bottle up to the light, you will see remnants of deposits on one side of the bottle. The brewery video also mentions that their direct file kettles slightly scorch the wort, which changes the taste and color a bit.

Notes: Tasting notes:
Exceptionally fruity (apricot, citrus, slight peach), light body, low malt character, smooth hops to start and finishes more harsh but still smooth.
More notes a few weeks in the keg;
More mellow, the bouquet is unreal and so in your face. An expensive beer to brew and so fucking worth it.
