I just brewed today but already thinking about my next brew. It's been a while since my last saison but I wanted to try something a little different and I came across a recipe on Mad Fermentationist's site for a funky saison which is blended with white wine before bottling. I know that probably sounds terrible to some people but I think it could work well.
This is the gist of the recipe I've adapted from his page:
20L Batch
1.052 OG
1.004 FG
6.7% ABV (before wine addition)
3.5kg pilsner malt
1.0kg flaked wheat
0.1kg acid malt
Bittered to 25 IBU
Whirlpool with 50g each hallertau blanc and hull melon
Dry hop with 50g each hallertau blanc and hull melon
Fermented with a blend of WY3711 and WLP644
500ml of white wine added at bottling (something like Gewurztraminer or Alcase reisling)
Thoughts?
