I have brewed BM's Cream of 3 Crops a few times and really enjoyed the beer, and once I made a higher gravity version for a party had a real crowd pleaser. So doing some equipment trades I ended up with a lot of Saaz hops, and thought, why not try a Saaz based version of the cream of 3 crops? I had some leftover perle and spalter hops as well and I have read they play nicely with saaz.
It's still a little under carbed at the moment but it is delicious. The hop finish gives it an almost ginger like spice. The hops in the mash were actually first wort hop.
