I'm really surprised at your FG. For that yeast i'd expect it to get under 1010 at least. I would expect it doesn't turn out dry enough for a saison.

What ferment temp did you ferment at? I just racked mine the other week off its yeast cake using the same yeast and it took 5+ weeks to get down to 1004 and I'm only up the road to you so I'd say we could of had similar ferment temps.

Haven't used those hops so I'm interested to hear the outcome and what they bring to this yeast dominated beer.
