Wyeast 3711 French Saison yeast

It's a lower ABV than the last Saison I did (9%) so it made for a much easier drinking beer during the summer. The hops weren't overwhelming and supported the yeast flavor while adding some interesting tastes of their own. Very easy drinking beer.

Looks like an interesting recipe. I'll have to try it soon.

I make a very similar beer with 3711, except I use Nelson Sauvin and Galaxy. I am going to make some on Monday---the only brew I have rebrewed 3 times.

Made this recipe and it is Awesome! Really tasty. I will defintely make this again.
