Yeah I had the yeastie boys beetroot saison on the weekend - great beer although not sure it added much in flavour. Brilliant colour though.

What is the point though? If I make a burger at home I don't try to 'clone' McDonalds

Cracked these 2 badboys recently. Both are saisons I fermented during the summer months. The first I went the traditional route, 100% pilsner malt, hallertau and williamette hops. Second was more or less an APA recipe fermented with saison yeast - from memory I picked up the malt bill for SNPA...

Hop hog is pretty widely available these days

Just bottle with a few different sizes. Not sure what the obsession with bottling in coopers tallies is - yeh i guess it saves some time although it's nothing compared to the time spent on actual brewday. I'll usually go 1/3 each stubbies, pints and longnecks (maybe skip the pints if it's...

Have got a few all grains under my belt now but just forget to take photos! Anyway I owe both of these to AHB: Dubbel Trouble (search leffe redeuise on the forum for the recipe) Intergalatic Pale Ale (10 Minute IPA with galaxy)

Love chilli but the few commercial examples I've had were horrible and certainly didn't encourage me to brew it.

nice post - putting together my next apa/ipa recipe so it's good to see some tried and tested combos (albeit most of these I've never heard of)

I use 1272 for apas - no reason in particular I just figure if 1056 is practically identical to us05 then may as well go for something different

Apologies for breaking up the thread, but. Quinoa saison? How did you rate it?

Have a crack at something sour

Yeh my plan with the hoppy one was to basically pick an APA/AIPA recipe and substitute the yeast. I really liked the little creatures Belgian/US IPA that was out a while back, and while I was in the states I had a (broadly) similar one from Karl Strauss which was I think even better. Anyway I'm...

cheers for the advice guys. I'll try to source farmhouse ale. Otherwise I think I'll go the Belgian as I believe it goes better in the heat? (Haven't personally used either yet) Liking the stout idea because I think by that that point I will probably be due something dark (I see your recipe in...

Hi everyone. Given that temps are on the rise I figure my next few brews are going to be saisons. I plan my brews in sets of 3 to make use of the yeast so I'm thinking: - Something traditional ie Dupont (lots of recipes around) - A 'New world' saison with lots of US hops (probably depends on...

Hey all putting down a fairly high og brew this weekend, recipe loosely based on a rochefort 10 recipe i found somewhere. The dates idea was floating around ahb a little while ago. Anyway I'm going with 1214 for yeast (fresh smackpack), however i also have a 1 ltr starter of 1388 from a rather...
