A few months back, we spent the day in Door County up at Baileys Harbor with our pals at Hacienda working to conceptualize a modern take on saison, utilizing some really incredible access to New Zealand hops they had that drive a lot of the fascinating fruit profiles in the IPA's they've become known for. And folks, wow, New Zealand hops are really something. Gigantic tropical energy here.
We whirlpooled a very light saison base beer with Nelson Sauvin and Motueka, and pitched a lab propagated mixed yeast culture produced by our colleagues to the south at Omega Yeast Labs. This culture is a mix of
Brettanomyces and "clean" brewers yeasts known to produce and highlight tropical fruit profiles derived both from fermentation and ingredient biotransformation.
We fermented the beer over 8 weeks in French oak, and dry-hopped again with Nelson Sauvin and Motueka. The result is a beer built like traditional saison, but brought to life using an exciting "new world" hop profile and an innovative and interesting mixed yeast culture.
AROMA: oak, pine, white grape
FLAVOR: can of Dole pineapple juice, peach concentrate, passionfruit
