Saison/Brettanomyces Blend
About
This blend combines one of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains from the Saison Blend and two unique Brettanomyces isolates from our yeast library. The Saccharomyces strain is a strong attenuator that produces a delightful ester profile of grapefruit and orange zest and imparts a long, dry and earthy finish to the beer. The Brettanomyces strains are both good attenuators that produce some fruity esters and mild funk, and add a bright character to the beer. The resulting beer is dry with balanced ester and phenolic character.
