I love Ommegang's Hennepin farmhouse style saison and never pass up the opportunity to order one on draft. Since it's getting warmer I've decided to go with the flow and try to brew something similar to this high-gravity Belgian style beer. I found this clone recipe from The Replicator, but it seems to offer solutions for extract only and all grain brewers. I've graduated to partial mashes but just don't have the equipment or the space for all-grain yet so my question is: what kind of specialty grains can I add to this beer to improve its flavor without altering the recipe too much? TIA!
