A simple inexpensive Saison with a twist of US citrus hops, inspired by the UK craft saisons that were so abundant this year (magic rock, brew by numbers, etc.) Saison is very cheap and easy to brew, capable of withstanding high ferment temps (up to 32c in the case of this yeast) and ready quickly, as well as being a massively versatile style of beer - you can elaborate on this recipe all you like, the important element is to use a proper saison yeast.
In reality this will ferment out to about 1.002 so expect 4.8% from this grain bill. Ramp the temperature up after 3 days of fermentation to ensure proper attenuation.
