Description

This saison blend is the Saccharomyces portion of our Farmhouse Sour Ale, available to you as a result of popular demand from the commercial brewing crowd. This combination of Saccharomyces strains embodies the balanced fusion of the two foremost saison flavour/aroma characters, fruitiness and earthiness.

Each Saccharomyces strain in this blend produces flavour compounds that serve as the yin to the other’s yang, and the result is an exceptionally complex yet balanced flavour and aroma profile. One strain will serve to create an ester profile of grapefruit and orange zest, while the other will produce a mild earthiness and spiciness.

Close your eyes while drinking a beer fermented with this blend, and you’ll feel like you’re laying on freshly turned earth in an old citrus grove.
