Notes

Split batch 2.5 gallons with Wyeast 3711 French Saison Plan to dry hop in 3 weeks and bottle in 4 weeks.

2.5 gallons with 3031 Private collection Saison Brett Plan to dry hop in 6 weeks and bottle in 7 weeks.

Brewed on 10/25/16. Substituted FF for Rakau hops. Rakau hops are sold out everywhere.

Bottled 2 gallons of the 3711 on 11/29/2016. Added 1.5 cups (1 in 20) of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc 2015 Mohua Marlborough. FG 1.004 Used 2 grams of Champagne yeast. Took three weeks to carbonate. Two weeks storage to peak in taste. Tart grapes and tangy citrus. Super yummy and complex saison. Awesome layers of flavor. Cloudy appearance started right after adding the dry hopped. Cloudy appearance stayed into the finished bottled beer.

Bottled 2.1gallons of the 3031on 12/28/2016 with 2 grams of dry abbey ale yeast. Added 1.5 cups (1 in 20) of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc 2014 Dashwood Marlborough. FG 1.001
