I took a hydrometer sample of the Brett C Rye Saison this morning. Its been 16 days since I pitched the 3711 yeast. The hydrometer reading is 1.003. Looks like the 3711 did its job!
I took the beer from 68deg F up 2deg per day to 80. Held it there for 4 days then cooled it down to 72deg F. Its been sitting at 72deg since.
Color: Straw yellow. Very cloudy.
Aroma: Definitely phenolic. Cloves maybe some citrus fruit.
Flavor: Very dry. some acidity, a little tannic. Maybe some citrus fruit coming thru.
This is definitely a different beer. Doesn't taste like a saison. Not sure what it tastes like right now. I will let this sit for a few more weeks in the bucket before I cold crash and carb it.
