Brewing a Belgian-Style Saison (Hennepin clone) | Grain to Glass | Classic Styles
Channel: TheApartmentBrewer
Date: 2018-09-17

In this video I show you how to brew a classic Belgian-style saison. This is a lovely and extremely dry finishing beer with a well-balanced hop bitterness that is ultimately quite refreshing. While it was about 7.9% ABV and 24 IBUs, it was very smooth and easy drinking with a very light and effervescent body.
