Notes

This beer is meant to be a sessionable Saison in the classic spirit. Just a little Acidulated Malt mimics the lacto goodness that would have resulted from using an open fermenter.

I brewed this beer to serve on a Sunny May afternoon at the Grand Central Beer Festival in beautiful St. Petersburg, Florida.

This turned out to be a very full flavored beer that most people enjoyed and many called one of the best at the show. The hop profile is perfect and the seasonings are just subtle nuance.
